Information about the ASE-300-DG/17The ASE-300-DG/17 is the most powerful module available worldwide (300 Watts) and offers unique benefits to installers and users. The average size "industry standard" solar panel is rated to produce approximately 50 watts of electricity. Four (4) ASE-300-DG/17 modules produce well over 1 kW of electricity with one sixth of the hardware and significantly less installation time. The advanced encapsulant and double glass design produces a perfect moisture barrier. Many versatile applications of the 300-DG/17 include telecommunications systems, alternative utility power, remote village electrification, and desalination plants.
