Schott Applied Power Corporation's New 165 Watt Photovoltaic Module Enables Energy Security

CALIFORNIA, ROCKLIN, Feb. 14 -/E-Wire/-- To aid in the country's quest for energy diversity and security, Schott Applied Power Corporation (SAPC) announces their new 165-Watt-multicrystalline photovoltaic (PV) module, the SAPC-165. In these times of uncertainty, Americans are looking for ways to help their country. Increasing energy security and decreasing dependence on foreign oil is a key contribution. SAPC-165's large format, 20-year warranty, and economical price will make it possible for even more Americans to power their homes and businesses with energy from the sun.

When the sun's rays hit an SAPC-165 photovoltaic module, energy is created. The electricity produced is generated right at the source of installation. Besides decreasing dependence on foreign energy supplies, the solar energy generated by the SAPC-165 does not create the pollution associated with burning fossil fuels. SAPC-165s, integrated into Schott Applied Power's complete solar-electric systems, use the sun shining overhead to power homes, buildings and other applications.

"Our new higher power module with affordable pricing will help Americans diversify our nation's energy mix and increase energy security," remarked Sam Vanderhoof, SAPC's President.

The SAPC-165 is a high quality, high power, and most importantly competitively priced PV module. It is UL listed and on the California Energy Commission (CEC) list of approved modules. With a 20-year warranty, installers and customers alike, are reassured that they will be producing their own energy for years to come. The high-power module with a rating of 165 watts has 72 5-inch (125mm) multicrystalline solar cells. The SAPC-165's high efficiency keeps the module size, 62 by 32 inches (1575 by 826 mm), manageable for PV installers and dealers.

Schott Applied Power Corporation is North America's leading photovoltaic distributor and complete systems provider. With dealer's located throughout the US, SAPC and their partners bring clean energy to industries, businesses, utilities, homeowners, and governments worldwide. SAPC is a subsidiary of the Schott Corporation [Yonkers, NY], www.us.schott.com/apc.
