Suntech Announces Zep-Compatible Quick-Install PV Modules

Suntech Power Holdings Co., one of the world’s largest solar companies, today announced a quicker and more cost effective method, using Zep Solar technology, to install PV arrays for commercial and residential roof applications. Suntech will showcase its new Zep CompatibleTM module at this week’s Solar Power International (SPI) Exhibition, booth #243.

suntechZep Solar mounting and grounding products are purposefully engineered to improve PV installations. Their patent-protected hardware systems, now an important industry standard, have proven to optimize material usage and labor as well as to increase function and aesthetics.
