BayWa r.e. Solar Systems LLC, a leading U.S. distributor of top-tier solar and energy storage components and systems, announced it has become a Platinum distributor for REC Americas LLC's product line of award-winning REC Alpha Series solar modules. The partnership also includes REC's Certified Solar Professional dealer program, which will be available to qualified installers.

Featuring some of the most advanced solar cell and module innovation on the market, the REC Alpha Series modules include 380-watt 60-cell and 450-watt 72-cell versions. Because of their high-power density, the premium panels produce 20% more energy compared to conventional modules, driving down solar electricity generation costs for homeowners and businesses. REC Alpha modules installed by REC Certified Solar Professionals carry the comprehensive 25-year Pro Trust Warranty, which covers product and labor, and guarantees performance at or above 92% of nameplate power in year 25.  

"BayWa r.e. has traditionally worked with a select group of module manufacturers to ensure high quality and support, and the addition of the REC Alpha Series expands our offering to include another high-performance line of products," said David Dunlap, VP of operations at BayWa r.e. Solar Systems LLC. "REC and BayWa r.e. share a strong focus on quality and excellent service, and the REC Certified Solar Professional program allows our customers to connect more directly with the manufacturer for best-in-class support." 

"REC has always worked with a very limited number of distributors, so this alliance opens our products to new customers via the strong distribution channels that BayWa r.e. is known for," said Cary Hayes, president of REC Americas LLC. "This agreement further strengthens our two companies' global partnership and will allow solar contractors across the U.S. to have more access to REC's products as well as to benefit from BayWa r.e.'s excellent customer support and logistics."
