Solar Power - Product Features
Highly Ecological
Mitsubishi Electric photovoltaic modules reflect a proactive approach to environmental regulations,
and the determination to supply outstanding "eco-products." A policy of producing photovoltaic power
generation systems with decreased negative impact on the planet results in the products that are gentle
on the environment.
Eco-products
Launching Japan’s first domestic mass production of lead-free solder photovoltaic modules has promoted
the creation of products with less negative impact on the environment.
Lead content: 0 grams*. A new type of photovoltaic power modules for the sake of the environment.
*lead volume used in soldered parts
Previously, the total amount of lead used in photovoltaic modules required to provide power
to a single residence (using a 3kw system) was around 864 grams. The new lead-free solder
modules use no lead at all.

No Solder Coating Required for Cells for Higher PV Module Conversion Efficiency
Using newly developed silver electrodes that offer superior weatherproofing, Mitsubishi Electric has perfected
a technology for producing photovoltaic cells that does not require solder coatings. We've even achieved higher
PV module conversion efficiency, taking advantage of the new product's ability to more uniformly reflect
the sun's rays.
