Recom Technologies Tier 1 Products (2023)
Recom Technologies are one of our favourite solar manufacturers.
They are local, European, and produce the highest quality products, while shorter supply-chains are better for our environment.
Their new range of inverters follows classical names – Helios, Apollo, Atlas, Poseidon, Hercules and Zeus. You have heard the names before but the inverters are all a little bit special.
Likewise, Recom Technologies current range of solar modules follows their original naming convention, with newer additions called ‘Lynx’ and ‘Black Tiger’ both featuring N-type cells with the associated benefits.
Black Tiger Series Solar Modules
Recom Technologies Black Tiger Series Solar Modules are said to be the HIGHEST EFFICIENCY SOLAR MODULES on the market today!
Offering efficiency up to 23.6% with near ZERO LID (Light Induced Degradation).
The mechanical resilience of the modules is indicated by the 25 YEAR PRODUCT WARRANTY while the Lower Temperature Coefficient delivers higher performance at increased ambient temperatures.
Recom Technologies Black Tiger Series have all the characteristics we might look for in a solar module for today’s environment.
Lynx Series Solar Modules
Recom Technologies Lynx Series Solar Modules are using the TOPCon technology brought to us by researchers at the Fraunhofer Insitute for Solar Energy (ISE).
Lynx Series Solar Modules are also based on N-type cells, and offer near ZERO LID, with high efficiency up to 22.86%, a 30 YEAR PRODUCT WARRANTY, and come in power classes up to 710 Wp.
These modules are slightly larger and heavier than lower power modules.
Lynx Series Solar Modules also offer BIFACIALITY which can deliver up to 10% MORE POWER for your project!

99% Efficient String Inverters
As far as string inverters are concerned efficiency is money. The higher the efficiency the more money you return on your investment – turning light into gold.
At lower currents and lower voltages the efficiency for Recom Technologies inverters is around 97% or 98%.
With larger commercial inverters Recom Technologies are offering up to 99% efficiency which is how you want your inverter to perform.
200% Oversizing – WOW!!
On average, inverter manufacturers offer a 1.3 to 1.5 ratio when it comes to oversizing DC input to AC output.
Recom Technologies are offering up to 2:1 for DC:AC, or 200% OVERSIZING on most of their small to medium scale inverters – including the Helios, Apollo and Atlas ranges of inverters.
A larger DC:AC ratio means more flexiblity with inverter sizing, MORE POWER for our customers, and more return on investment, so ideally we would choose to be at 200%.
WOW!! Recom Technologies have set a NEW BENCHMARK for oversizing string inverters.
Recom Single Phase Inverters
Recom Technologies Single Phase Inverters include the HELIOS and APOLLO ranges.
HELIOS single phase inverters come with 200% oversizing, in-built export control function, zero-export facility, and can integrate with your home EV charging station.
APOLLO single phase inverters also come with 200% oversizing, zero-export facility, and can integrate with both your home EV charging station and your heat-pump.
Both lines of single phase inverter come with a 10 year free warranty.
Recom Three Phase Inverters
Recom Technologies Three Phase Inverters include the ATLAS, POSEIDON, HERCULES and ZEUS ranges of inverters which will take you all the way to 275 kW of output power.
As with their single phase inverters, the ATLAS range of three-phase inverters offers 200% oversizing on the DC inputs, and a 10 year free warranty, for solar arrays up to 30 kWp.
POSEIDON range of three-phase inverters will suit commercial projects up to 45 kWp, and incorporate both AC & DC surge protection devices, with optional ARC fault protection. This range also offers in-built export power control often required by the grid operator, and a suite of software applications for operation & maintenance support.
Commercial Solar PV Projects
For larger commercial solar PV projects you will need the power output of a Hercules or a Zeus inverter from Recom Technologies.
HERCULES three phase inverters can flex some muscle up to 90 kWp, with 150% oversizing, and will suit most commercial applications.
This range of inverters includes both AC and DC surge-protection devices integrated as standard, with optional AFCI. There is a complete range of smart functionality – including integrated export power control – which adds to the rated maximum efficiency of 98.4%.
At this level of efficiency your ROI is going to be attractive.
ZEUS three phase inverters are top of the class for utility scale solar farm developments.
Zeus is definitely putting it up to the competition … and blowing them away in our opinion.
With fewer inverters required to produce more solar power, there is an increased return on investment. Similarly, factor in the higher maximum efficiency of 98.6% for inverters up to 125 kW AC which can accomodate up to 188 kWp of solar modules.
The most powerful inverter in the Zeus range is offering maximum efficiency of 99.03% with output currents a shade under 200 Amps. The maximum available output power is 275 kW which is automatically derated at higher temperatures up to 50 degrees.
ZEUS has arrived, and we can already hear the grid crackling with excitement.
