Mitsubishi Electric photovoltaic modules reflect a proactive approach to environmental regulations, and the determination to supply outstanding "eco-products." A policy of producing photovoltaic power generation systems with decreased negative impact on the planet results in the products that are gentle on the environment.

| Eco-products |
Launching Japan's first domestic mass production of lead-free solder photovoltaic modules has promoted the creation of products with less negative impact on the environment.
Lead content: 0 grams*. A new type of photovoltaic power modules for the sake of the environment.
*lead volume used in soldered parts
Previously, the total amount of lead used in photovoltaic modules required to provide power to a single residence (using a 3kw system) was around 864 grams. The new lead-free solder modules use no lead at all.

No Solder Coating Required for Cells for Higher PV Module Conversion Efficiency
Using newly developed silver electrodes that offer superior weatherproofing, Mitsubishi Electric has perfected a technology for producing photovoltaic cells that does not require solder coatings. We've even achieved higher PV module conversion efficiency, taking advantage of the new product's ability to more uniformly reflect the sun's rays.
