The company claims that the NewEdge modules with Zep Solar’s rail-free, auto-grounding system could slash residential installation costs in half and reduce the amount of time installers spend on a roof by 75%.
The NewEdge modules come in two types, NewEdge CS5A-180/185/190/195/200MX, which uses 5″ monocrystalline silicon, and NewEdge CS6P-220/230/240/250PX, which uses 6″ polycrystalline silicon.
Mike Miskovsky, general manager of US operations at Canadian Solar, said: “Canadian Solar is the first solar panel manufacturer to provide the Zep Compatible NewEdge panels, and we’re looking forward to offering installers this high quality and forward-thinking solar technology.
“The Zep System represents a turnaround in standard installation practices and hardware. Canadian Solar is building on our market leadership and reputation for high quality products by coupling our high performance modules with this leading next-generation installation technology.”
Canadian Solar designs, manufactures and delivers solar products and solar systems for on-grid and off-grid use.
