Even a few years ago, solar panels were not as popular as they are today; however, the scenario has changed, and solar energy has become one of the fastest-growing solutions to rising electricity costs and climate concerns.

With this growth, many solar companies have entered the Australian market, and one name that keeps standing out is REC.

Known for their excellent solar panel efficiency, incredible durability, and long-term performance, they’ve become one of the most talked-about brands in the country.

But is REC the most dependable solar? Does it live up to the hype when compared to its competitors, such as SunPower, LG, and Trina?

If these questions also cross your mind, then follow along, because in this post, we’ll explore some key points that separate REC from the rest and find out if it is the most dependable solar option for Australians.

Ready to find out if REC is the real deal? It’s time to dive in!

Overview of REC: Who is REC & What is their Position in Australia?

Originating from Norway, REC Group is now owned by Reliance Industries, and the company manufactures panels mainly in
Singapore and Norway.

This award-winning solar company, with a Tier 1 title, was founded in 1996 and has grown to become a leading
innovator in solar PV technology.

However, Australia is one of REC’s important markets. Several solar installers here regularly evaluate panel brands,
and REC often ranks near the top in installer surveys, particularly for
top-notch quality and first-rate after‑sales support.

The company employs over 2,000 people and operates an advanced manufacturing plant in Singapore.

Typically, REC produces approximately 1.5 GW of solar panels per
year. REC is still growing, although it remains small in comparison to the massive Chinese solar manufacturers. The
company is also a leader in sustainability within the industry. 

The operations headquarters and manufacturing facilities are in Singapore. And the new parent company, Reliance New
Energy Solar, is part of the Indian conglomerate Reliance Industries as of 2021.

The company has several offices worldwide, including one in Melbourne’s CBD. REC is a fully vertically integrated
company. Therefore, they manufacture everything from silicon ingots and wafers to cells and complete module
assemblies.

Since they make everything in-house, it gives them complete control over the quality and traceability of all
components.

REC claims to have the industry’s lowest warranty rate. It is a big claim and difficult to verify. But given the
overwhelmingly positive feedback, they are definitely known to produce highly reliable and high-performing panels.

Especially, they are known for their effectiveness in the harsh Australian
climate
, with very few known quality issues.

Also, the REC Certified Solar Professional Program allows them to offer their customers longer warranty periods,
including a product and labour warranty of up to 25 years.

We’re Running Out of Time

There really are threats to human civilization that seem to be mounting in intensity:

• World fascism.  (If it can happen in the U.S., it could conceivably happen anywhere.)

• Environmental collapse.

• Malicious use of AI.

• Pandemics, as misinformation on vaccinations spread and the frozen tundra melts, releasing pathogens never seen by humans.

• Nuclear war.

Addressing the point made at left, is there any scenario in which world governments agree to cooperate so as to stave off the end of an organized society here on Earth?  One supposes so, though it sounds far-fetched in today’s world in which the leaders of most of the 200+ sovereign nations are trying so desperately to cling to power.

An ever-increasing number of Americans are realizing that Trump is criminally insane, and is leading this nation to destruction.

The Economics of Climate Change Mitigation

It’s a pleasure to see that Dr. Brian Cox has people so popular, having joined the ranks for Neil DeGrasse Tyson, Bill Nye, and a few others.  This phenomenon of celebrity physicists if one of very few bright spots in our modern world.

I would qualify what he says at left as follows: the only people who hate the economics here are those invested in fossil fuels.  Clean energy and transportation are already huge industries, and they’re growing at an amazing pace–even in the face of heavy suppression by Big Oil and Donald Trump.
