Exel Solar, the largest independent distributor of PV products in Mexico, announces a strategic partnership with Sunpreme Inc. to offer Smart Bi-facial PV Modules.
With nationwide coverage throughout Mexico, Exel Solar has been offering world-class distribution capabilities since 2012. “Our strategic partnership with Sunpreme gives us a huge advantage since we are able to offer to the Mexican market a truly technically advanced Smart PV Module with proven reliability at a competitive price. Sunpreme brings a strong technical collaboration and professional customer support to this partnership,” said Horacio Duhart, President and CEO at Exel Solar. “We are offering a powerful value proposition to drive business growth, and we are excited to work with Sunpreme, their customer-driven culture of technical excellence and high quality products.”
Sunpreme Smart Modules offer customers with advanced functionality that maximizes energy yield and peak string level AC/DC ratio using impedance matching technology. It lowers system costs by increasing string length by up to 30% resulting in fewer BOS components. The Smart Module components work together to communicate wirelessly through the gateway, allowing users to monitor system performance accurately in real time, while meeting NEC 690.12 rapid shutdown safety standards. The modules are Bi-facial, double glass, frameless, aesthetically great looking, easy to install with innovative racking and mounting solutions, and feature 21.5% efficient Cells enabling 310W 60-cell and 370W 72-cell Modules, and a low thermal coefficient of -0.28%/C.
“We are privileged to partner with a premier distributor in making Sunpreme available to Exel Solar’s strong customer base in Mexico. Exel Solar presents us with a strategic and immediate downstream opportunity in the growing Mexico Solar Market,” said Surinder S. Bedi, Executive Vice President for Market Development, System Products, and Global Quality & Reliability at Sunpreme. “We congratulate Exel Solar for their extraordinary commitment to high quality standards and helping developers reach their energy goals. We have demonstrated a highly compelling offering that integrates the technologies, product reliability and most cost effective solar electricity solution. The Bi-facial technology – allows the module to absorb light from both sides, increasing energy yield (kWh per kWp). Our carefully designed Smart Modules with advanced optimization solution further accelerates kWh yield and peak string level AC/DC ratio, and reducing installation time and complexity with fewer BOS components. Sunpreme has historically offered reliable products — tested and certified to withstand the most challenging environmental solutions ranging from extreme hot to extreme cold, increased snow load and wind resistance, and coupled with one of the best power warranties in the industry. As a strategic partner, we will deliver measurable business outcomes by bringing together expertise and capabilities, and to maximize project financial returns and its lifetime yield.”
