Italy-based FuturaSun says its solar modules have passed the International Electrotechnical Commission's (IEC) IEC61701 Ed2 salt-spray corrosion test. The certification covers all the company's products, with outputs ranging up to 305 W.
The test is intended for products that are used in a marine environment or in close proximity to the sea and exposed to the environment for most of their operational life.
FuturaSun says the IEC certification is important when competing for projects in coastal areas, including the U.K., the Philippines and the Caribbean.
