LG Solar Brochure

Why LG?
LG, a global icon of excellence in the electronics industry with half a century of success, has more than 30
years of experience in the solar industry. LG Solar products are designed for residential and commercial
use and reflect our company’s expertise in world-class manufacturing. When you purchase LG Solar
panels, you invest in a product manufactured with the most stringent research, testing, and
development standards. LG panels have consistently outperformed other brand designs in
wattage output per panel at industry-recognized testing laboratories.
With the LG NeON® R, LG offers enhanced 25-year product
and performance warranties.
The LG NeON® R is a high-power luxury solar panel featuring newly
developed Back Contact Technology™. The advanced cell structure
locates all of the module’s electrodes on the back side of the panel, minimizing
power loss and boosting efficiency. No front-panel electrodes are present to affect light
capture. Back Contact Technology™ also improves the module’s temperature coefficient. When
compared to other brands, LG Solar modules deliver the highest temperature performance ratings and
output, even on the hottest days.
The electrical current in the LG NeON® R is separated into many channels instead of the conventional three. This increases
power output, and the strategic wire layout significantly reduces vulnerability to environmental damage.

Back Contact Technology™
“A key driver behind the decision was, what
does the warranty look like? It was 25
years, which was very attractive. That was
one of the highest I saw in the research
that I conducted.”
– Karim Abdelkader, Bloomington, Indiana
“The panels are going to provide
approximately 76% of my electric
consumption…it’s very neatly installed,
there are no rough edges to it, so it
really looks nice.”
– Steve Rorem, Gardner, Massachusetts
Space-Saving Modules for Residential Projects
Higher module efficiency makes it possible for 60-cell LG NeON® R modules to produce the same amount of electricity
with fewer solar modules, decreasing the number of panels needed and saving space for smaller installations.

Enhanced Physical Durability
With a newly reinforced frame design,
LG NeON® R modules can handle a full ton of snow
load and withstand 208-mph winds. In comparison,
Hurricane Katrina (2005) produced a maximum
speed of 175-mph winds.
