“REC is equipping installers with the tools and know-how for them to differentiate themselves as professional installers, increase their credibility and grow their businesses,” Jen Tan, vice president for sales and marketing in Asia Pacific, REC. “We are delighted to kick-off this programme with five solar installers in the Philippines. They can now provide their customers with high-quality installations backed by excellent technical and safety expertise, with the assurance of REC’s high performing solar panels,” she added.

Panels installed under the REC Solar Professional Program will also have two additional years added to their warranty and installers will be offered additional sales and marketing support.
