First impression of the REC Alpha Pure
The first thing I notice is the design of this solar panel. It's thin, completely black, and looks very sleek. The panel has almost no stripes, which makes it look very modern. I notice that this is a very special panel that's of high-end quality. The 2 bars on the back make this design a lot stronger and able to withstand severe storms.
Improved technologies
The REC solar panel has useful technologies that help you get the most out of your solar roof. That's because this panel has a 410 Watt-peak and a high power desnity of 222W/m2. Thanks to the special cell structure, you have a higher yield per panel, so you can also generate a lot of power with a small solar roof. As the panel has N-type heterojunction solar cells, it also lasts longer. It works like this: during a sunny day, the solar panels heat up a lot. The cells keep the temperature of the panel itself low. This generates more power and makes the model last longer.
Lead-free panels
To make the panels, manufacturers often use lead. REC doesn't, as they made their panel production lead-free. They use other environmentally-friendly materials instead. This way, they contribute to a cleaner future. That's why the REC assortment complies with the RoHS guidelines (Restriction of Hazardous Substances).
High-end build quality
The panel has a sturdy quality. That's why the panel can withstand severe weather conditions better, like heavy storms or wind gusts. After 25 years, this panel still has a 92% performance warranty. This means that after 25 years, REC solar panels still generate 92% of their original power. Normally, that average percentage is around 89%. That way, you have a durable panel that lasts a long time.
Conclusion
An REC Alpha Pure panel is a high-end panel for your solar roof that's environmentally-friendly and lasts an extra long time. Thanks to the useful technologies, you can generate lots of solar power. The panels also almost don't stand out thanks to their black design. You do pay a bit more for an REC Alpha Pure panel, so the payback period is longer. The panels do last longer than average, so you can enjoy your solar roof for longer. Want to know more about solar panels on your roof?
