1 SolTech Inc. Receives UL/ETL Certification for Its Line of High-Performance Solar Photovoltaic Panels

DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--1 SolTech, Inc. announced today that its factory has passed the compliance and testing audit, and it has received full UL/ETL certification for its line of high-performance solar photovoltaic panels. These panels are top-rated both in output power and their ability to withstand hail and wind damage, making them ideal for residential, commercial, industrial, and utility applications. 1 SolTech, Inc. is one of the few U.S.-based developers and manufacturers of solar modules.

“1 SolTech produces a stellar product versus a ‘me-too’ product, and the character and service of 1 SolTech’s management team is world-class.”

“1 SolTech’s solar panels provide valuable benefits to the energy consumer, energy suppliers, and utilities,” said Ms. Sandy Fardi, co-founder and CEO of 1 SolTech, Inc. “The superior performance and reliability of our panels, designed and produced by our skilled team of engineers and technicians, assures years of clean, carbon-free energy production. Our U.S. production facility not only meets ‘Buy American’ initiatives, but also provides faster delivery and lower delivery costs than most of our competitors.”

“We selected 1 SolTech to supply PV solar panels because it was important to us and our customers to source from a true U.S. manufacturer, and because of the superior technical and structural merits of the product,” said Gary Jones, president of 411 NRG in Wichita Falls, Texas. “1 SolTech produces a stellar product versus a ‘me-too’ product, and the character and service of 1 SolTech’s management team is world-class.”

1 SolTech utilizes highest quality U.S. components to produce best-in-class PV modules. These modules feature 3 bus-bar mono-crystalline silicon cells with high-absorbency and enhanced low-light performance, produced by Suniva, Inc. (Norcross,GA); high-transparency, low-reflective tempered glass 25 percent thicker than industry standards for superior durability; and lightweight, heavy-duty anodized aluminum alloy frames. Cell efficiency is rated at 18 percent, producing overall module efficiency of 15+ percent.

There are four 1 SolTech panel models with output power of 235 to 250 watts. These American-made products are competitively-priced, guaranteed to meet or exceed performance claims, and backed by a 25-year power warranty.
