Solar panels

 

Solar panels are the highest priced component in any solar power system - and also the most critical.    Each panel we provide complies with IEC 61215, which is the International Electrical Commission's standard for Solar Panels and all carry an incredible 25 year output guarantee!

 

Your school system will be comprised of REC Peak Energy solar panels. These modules deliver more power per square meter and also have the lowest embodied energy of any solar panel on the market. While solar electricity is clean and green, solar power equipment requires a certain amount of energy in the production of the components used - this is called embodied energy.

  

REC's Peak Energy solar panels were a nominee for the prestigious 2010 Intersolar Photovoltaics Award and were the top ranking module in a March 2010 Photon Magazine efficiency test.

  

REC Solar is a very popular brand in Europe and the panels have already proved themselves in Australia in demanding commercial applications. 

 

Grid connect inverters

 

Inverters convert 12 volt DC electricity generated by a solar panel into 240 volt AC, which can be used directly by equipment and appliances in your school.    Energy Matters provides top quality SMA inverters that provide high reliability, efficiency and ease of use.

 

SMA offer 20 years of experience in the development and fabrication of power inverters for solar & wind energy. SMA's products are international award winners.

 

Mounting systems

 

With components made of extruded aluminium and stainless steel, plus high corrosion resistance ensuring a long lifespan, SunLock offers a tidy and super strong mounting solution that can be easily mounted on every kind of roof.   The SunLock solar mounting system was designed and is made in Australia!

 

SunLock is not only 100% Australian designed, manufactured and tested; it's a cutting edge solar panel mounting system developed by Energy Matters! SunLock is the product of decades of collective experience of our BCSE/CEC accredited installation team; so it's a system developed by installers for installers!
