SF145–165 module series offers the highest conversion efficiency of any mass- produced thin-film module, up to 13.4 %. All modules are RoHS compliant and cadmium- and lead-free. Fewer production steps and raw materials also mean an industry-leading energy payback time of less than one year. SF145–165 modules are shipped in cardboard- free packaging and use recyclable corner pieces.
