JinkoSolar has built a vertically integrated solar product value chain, with an integrated annual capacity of 31 GW for mono wafers, 19 GW for solar cells, and 36 GW for solar modules, as of September 30, 2021.
Sollatek’s award winning Glowstar (solar lantern) and DC Lighting products are the preferred choice in specifying rural lighting and solar lighting home systems.
Solar Components. Understanding the products or components that enable a solar energy system to function properly is important. Any potential solar power system owner should take the time to understand what summarizes a photovoltaic array and how those components work to enable electrical generation for the energy needs.

The Renewable Energy Ready Home (RERH) specifications were developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to assist builders in designing and constructing homes equipped with a set of features that make the installation of solar energy systems after the completion of the home’s construction easier and less expensive. The specifications...
These specifications were created with certain assumptions about the house and the proposed solar energy system. They are designed for builders constructing single family homes with pitched roofs, which offer adequate access to the attic after construction. It is assumed that aluminum framed photovoltaic (PV) panels mounted on a “post” and rail mou...
EPA has developed the following RERH specification as an educational resource for interested builders. EPA does not conduct third-party verification of the site data or the online site assessment results, or verify whether the home has been properly outfitted with a set of features that comply with this specification. The RERH specifications are no...
Builders should use EPA’s online RERH SSAT to demonstrate that each proposed system site location meets a minimum solar resource potential. EPA has developed an online site assessment tool, which assists builders in assessing whether a new home offers an appropriate installation environment for the future installation of a solar energy system. The ...
The builder should install a 1” metal conduit from the designated inverter location to the main service panel where the system is intended to be tied into the home’s electrical service. The conduit should be capped and clearly labeled as an RERH component on the stubbed end near the inverter location. The conduit run should be identified on electri...
The builder should identify the local electric utility company and its Web address on the checklist. Renewable energy metering requirements, and possibly financial incentives, vary from utility to utility. Homeowners should be encouraged to contact and consult their utility service provider as a first step when they begin to plan for the installati...
The builder should avoid implementing landscaping that has the potential to shade the proposed array location at the time of home construction or in future years. As a rule of thumb, vegetation with a mature species height should adhere to a distance-to-height ratio of 2.6 to the nearest point of the proposed array location. Builders and/or landsca...
Careful placement of roof penetrations will maximize the available roof space for and facilitate the eventual installation of the proposed array. If the proposed array is to be located on a roof, care must be taken to ensure that the proposed array location is not affected by typical plumbing or mechanical roof penetrations. The placement of such p...
EPA does not provide labels for labeling the RERH components described in the specification. However, guidance is provided below for the builder about the suggested application and size of labels for each applicable item in the specification.
