Westford, MA – Today Green Ray Solar announced the first ever certification for an AC module solar module the SunSine 200 AC, the worlds’ first solar appliance. This is quite a development because AC is safer then DC, micro inverters are build into the solar panels and installation costs will be lower. The SunSine™200 has been certified by Intertek. Intertek performed the comprehensive safety and grid connectivity testing according to the UL 1741 standard; following the testing, the product received the ETL mark for the U.S.
“Having this important certification allows GreenRay to shift its focus and now
aggressively build our sales and partner channels and begin production of the SunSine™200 AC Module”, said Miles C. Russell, founder and CEO of GreenRay, Inc. “We expect to have product available for delivery starting in October. This has been a long development path, and we owe thanks to many partners who helped us get this far, including the Department of Energy, the MA Clean Energy Center, and our investors, 21Ventures and The Quercus Trust. ”
The SunSine™200 AC Module is the world’s first solar appliance. It is a fully-integrated plug- and-play PV system, and provides the market with a modular, scalable AC system solution for home and commercial solar installations.
In another industry first, the SunSine™200 AC Module comes with a 20-year warranty, including the integrated micro-inverter. GreenRay’s proprietary inverter is designed to match the useful life expectancy of PV modules by eliminating the weak components found in other inverters, such as electrolytic capacitors and opto-couplers.
