REC Peak Energy 235watt Grid Connect Solar Panel (Black)

Award-winning REC Peak Energy (PE)-Series solar panels are an excellent choice for building solar systems. Offering robust quality with reliable power output, REC Solar combines stringent design and manufacturing standards to produce high-performance solar panels with uncompromising quality.

A popular choice in Europe and nominee for the coveted 2010 Intersolar Photovoltaics Award, REC Group's REC235PE solar panels are destined to become a common feature on rooftops throughout Australia!

REC solar panels were also recognised as the top rated panel in a 2011 Photon Magazine peformance test and won the Solar Industry Award for Module Innovation, presented by Solar PV Management Magazine, in August 2010. A year long performance ratio test in 2009 performed by Germany's Fraunhofer Institute placed REC solar panels ahead of two leading Chinese and European brands.

NEWS! REC Peak Energy modules recently underwent potential-induced degradation (PID) resistance testing (one of the industry's toughest tests) - and achieved very impressive results!
