The Kaneka GEB is a thin film silicon solar panel that has been designed for both grid connected and remote power applications.

The Kaneka panel has been used extensively Australia wide and there are more than 10,000 panels on Australia roofs.

Features:

- Exceptional high temperature tolerance - a crystalline solar panel decreases in power output over twice as rapidly as the Kaneka GEB. Kaneka Silicon PV's generated watt-power is about the same as that of other crystalline silicon PVs during the winter months, but in summer, the Kaneka Silicon PV generates significantly more power compared to other crystalline silicon PVs. Kaneka modules can deliver maximum performance during summer when the electricity is needed most for air-conditioners in houses and offices.

With the Kaneka LSU, shade will only impact on the portion of the panel the shade obscures. Additionally, Kaneka solar panels have superior light absorption per nominal watt power. They absorb more of the sun's spectrum. Compared with mono-crystalline silicon PV modules or poly-crystalline silicon PV modules, Kaneka generates considerably more power per nominal watt power. Assuming that the total solar radiation per year (1.323kWh/m2) is 100%, Kaneka Silicon PV can produce 90.95% of actually generated watt-power, much higher than that of other crystalline silicon PVs (80 to 84%).

- Lower level of embedded energy. The energy payback time is less than 2 years or around 30% less than a crystalline solar panel - a decisive ecological advantage!

Energy Pay-back Time is one of the most important aspects when evaluating the ecological benefit of PV systems.

- The thickness of the Kaneka cell is 0.3 micron, which is 1/600 of that of crystalline silicon cell (approx. 200 microns).

- Class leading efficiency and stable output power
- High transmissivity and impact resistant glass (2400 Pa)
- Uniform appearance ideal for applications where aesthetics are important
- A rugged and corrosion-resistant black anodised aluminium frame ensuring dependable performance, even under harsh weather conditions
- Pre-drilled mounting holes are provided for ease of installation
- Integrated bypass diodes
