About REC
REC, a company founded in Norway in 1996 is specialized in the production of solar modules for PV plants. Since the beginning, REC positioned itself as an international pioneer in the green energy field, fully devoted to the creation of solutions that can catch the highest possible amount of solar energy.
REC’s commitment towards a green energy transition occurs also in the realization of modules because they are made of high-quality material with a very low carbon footprint. REC wants to create value for its customers through the creation of sustainable and efficient products that come along with services and products that can fulfill the ever-growing global needs.
REC’s activity in the last 25 years, led to the realization of 43 million plants, with more than 12 gigawatt and 18 million people that decided to use solar energy for their necessities. REC’s headquarter leads in Norway, with operating offices in Singapore and regional hubs in North America, Europe, and Asia, thus guaranteeing a worldwide presence.
Product range
REC’s modules have a high efficiency level and are suitable for any application, both residential and commercial or industrial. In particular, REC’s solutions ensure a high energetic performance also in case of shadowing and a long term reliability, thanks to the use of cutting-edge technologies.

Features of the Series REC
Modules of Alpha Pure R series & RX have innovative features that increase the overall efficiency of the module.
- Heterojunction
Technology that allows to increase the efficiency and the performances of the module as the temperature increases. Thanks to the high-power density (watt / m2), REC’s Alpha Pure and Pure-R modules, generate much more power on the same area, thus getting more results from smaller spaces.
-
Connection between the cells
Cells connected thanks to a combination of films and conductors, that create a solder-free module. Moreover, cells are coupled in a gapless modality, thus increasing the efficiency of the module.
-
Resistence
Presence of two cross bars on the back, that increase its resistence to wind and snow loads that allow the module to bear till 7000Pa (713kg/m2) on the front part.
-
Shadowing
Junction box split in four that creates a module divided into four different sections, not only 3.
This assures that, in case of partial shadowing the other sections will keep on producing at the top potentiality.
-
Voltage
Short circuit voltage lower than 9 A that is an advantage for the sizing of both the inverters and the optimizers.
REC Warranties
REC modules have a 20 year warranty, that covers eventual flaws or misconduct of the module and the warranty on the performances is 25 year (92% of power after 25 years).
Installers that are part of the REC Certified Solar Professional Program can benefit from a warranty of 25 years.
