Stringent internal testing
Product quality beyond expectations

REC's internal testing is up to three times as stringent as industry standards – meaning that when we send out our panels for certification or testing, we know they will pass. But beyond attaining a certification, we want our panels to be reliable for the lifetime of the product and perform strongly in even the most extreme environments.

Third party testing

REC products and production processes are also certified and endorsed by independent third parties according to multiple global and regional industry standards, solidifying the fact that REC panels meet the highest quality standards required for a long-lasting product. REC panels have also been recently recognized as a Top Performer in the DNV-GL Module Reliability Scorecard, proving their market-leading quality.

Protecting you from power loss

This high level of quality means REC panels are also leaders in avoiding power loss due to degradation (LID, PID). By choosing a quality REC panel with quality materials, you can be sure to generate more power and thus earn/save more money thanks to reduced degradation.

Repeatable high quality

The stringent internal processes used by REC, such as RBS (REC Business System) and RPDM (REC Product Development Model), are rigidly followed to ensure that all our panels consistently have the highest quality, wherever they are installed. This repeatable high quality is synonymous with the REC brand.

Very low claims rate

The reliability and quality of our panels are evidenced by our claims rate – out of 4 million panels manufactured each year, just 400 might come back as product claims. REC‘s warranties reflect this strength, further supporting REC’s premium quality. And in the unlikely event of a product claim, we have proven processes in place that ensure smooth, streamlined, and hassle-free handling of them.
