High Quality and Durability with a Low Failure Rate

One of the key reasons why REC solar panels are highly regarded is their exceptional quality. REC’s manufacturing process involves stringent testing that goes beyond industry standards. In fact, REC tests it’s solar panels three times more thoroughly than the average manufacturer, ensuring that they withstand even the toughest weather conditions, including Adelaide’s hot summers and occasional hailstorms.

This commitment to quality translates into lower failure rates, meaning fewer headaches for homeowners. REC solar panels are built to last, making them a wise, long-term investment.

Industry-Leading 25 Year Warranty

Most solar panel brands offer a 10 year product warranty and a 25 year performance guarantee. However, as a certified REC installer, we can offer you an impressive 25 year product, labour and performance warranty—one of the longest warranties in the solar industry. This means you can enjoy peace of mind knowing your solar investment is protected for the long haul.

Exceptional Efficiency for Maximum Savings

Generally, a solar efficiency rating of 20% is considered high efficiency. If you have a large roof space for solar panels this general efficiency rating is perfectly acceptable.

However, if you are wanting to maximise your solar production and have a system that performs well in low-light conditions or partially shaded areas, you can do no better than REC.

With the REC Alpha Pure-RX having a 22.6% efficiency rating they are well and truly the best solar panels on the market.

Higher efficiency panels mean you can generate more power in less space, making them ideal for homeowners who want to maximise their energy production. This is especially beneficial if your roof space is limited or partially shaded.

Thanks to REC’s innovative split-cell technology, their panels also perform better in low-light conditions and partially shaded areas.

Low Degradation Rate

Just like most things that spend all day in the sun, solar panels do degrade over time meaning that their efficiency to convert sunshine into electricity decreases. But with their high quality and durable design, REC panels are estimated to still be operating at 92% of their original efficiency in 25 years, higher than the average 80-88% industry standard.

Built to Withstand Harsh Weather

Adelaide’s weather can be unpredictable, but REC solar panels are designed to handle extreme conditions.

REC solar panels are known for their excellent heat resistance. Solar panels tend to lose efficiency as temperatures rise, but REC’s Alpha series has a much lower rate of efficiency loss, making them a fantastic choice for hot Australian summers.

Additionally, REC panels have some of the strongest frames in the industry, with the ability to withstand weight and pressure 30% higher than standard panels. This makes them highly resistant to hailstorms with REC panels tested to survive impact from hailstones up to 35mm.

A Commitment to Sustainability

In today’s environmentally conscious world, REC solar panels appeal to those looking to reduce their carbon footprint. REC’s manufacturing process includes innovative techniques like recycling silicon kerf (a by product of wafer cutting), which reduces the energy needed to produce the panels. The Alpha Pure series is also lead-free, complying with the strictest environmental standards. Choosing REC solar panels helps you make a positive impact both financially and environmentally.

Reliable Australian Based Support

When considering solar panels, local support is crucial. REC has an office based in Melbourne, offering prompt and reliable customer service for Australian homeowners. Whether you need assistance with installation or have questions about your warranty, help is just a simple phone call away.

Financial Stability and Long-Term Value

REC has been a global leader in solar energy since it’s founding in Norway in 1996. With headquarters in Norway and Singapore, as well as a strong presence in Australia, REC is a financially stable company with over 20 years of industry experience. This means you can trust them to be around for the full duration of your 25 year warranty—a critical factor when choosing the best solar panels for your home.
