1 LIGHTWAY OP+ One of Australia s hardest working solar panels - rain, hail, or shine. HIGH PERFORMANCE SOLAR PANELS - ENGINEERED FOR AUSTRALIAN CONDITIONS + 5W

2 Introducing LIGHTWAY OP+ LIGHTWAY S vertically integrated manufacturing process utilises the world s leading technologies, to produce one of the highest quality, precision engineered solar panels on the market. LIGHTWAY S vertically integrated and internationally sourced manufacturing process OP+ Solar Cells begin their life as a solar ingot cast within our Ingot Workshop using the GT Solar crystallisation system. Ingot Casting Equipment supplied by partner - GT Solar based in USA. Once cast, the ingots are sawn, ground into wafers and adhered to glass mounting plates. Through controlling the entire manufacturing process LIGHTWAY is able to constantly improve efficiencies.

3 Precision Engineered LIGHTWAY modules are engineered to outperform. Built for the harsh Australian climate, they provide reliable high yields and long service life. The high power tolerance, outstanding low-light performance, and comprehensive product guarantees mean more electricity can be produced during system operations ensuring a greater return on investment. All LIGHTWAY OP+ Solar Panels are backed by a 25 Year Warranty (80% output) Cell production Using a Toyama Soldering Machine, 3 bus bars and conductive grid are soldered onto each OP+ Cell. OP+ Solar Cells are vacuum laminated through a multi stage lamination process to produce high edge stability and excellent long term protection of the cells.

4 The multicrystalline advantage The powerhouse of LIGHTWAY s OP+ modules, the high yielding OP+ cells, are carefully selected to ensure each panel works at its best no matter what the conditions. OP+ solar panels deliver up to 5W output tolerances above the rated output (2.5% on a 250W solar panel). Exceptional low-light performance delivers more power, more often and ensures a greater return on investment. All OP+ solar panels are fitted with high quality anodised frames and tempered glass, to provide resistance against the harsh Australian climate. Cell production Using the Texturing Machine, multi wafers are cleaned, glued, separated, characterised, and sorted. Utilising The world s best machinery to create the world s best panel.

Exceptional low-light performance delivers more power, more often and ensures a greater return on investment.

5 + 5W All LIGHTWAY OP+ panels are fitted with hardened, high transparency glass to withstand the worst that the Australian climate can muster. BUS 5WBARS + + 5W Our extensive quality control process ensures that LIGHTWAY panels continually exceed their stated wattage output - allowing a faster return on investment. LIGHTWAY s multicrystalline cells deliver superior performance in high ambient temperatures. + 5W LIGHTWAY OP+ multicrystalline panels feature an optimised + 5Wcell design to provide maximum energy return over a longer period of the day. HIGH + 5W TEMP LIGHTWAY OP+ includes three Bus Bars per cell for greater low light energy performance. + 5W LIGHTWAY OP+ features six bypass diodes, providing optimum energy return in shaded conditions and superior protection against hot spots. All LIGHTWAY panels include 50mm anodised frames - robust construction designed to withstand the toughest Australian conditions. Cell production To ensure the optimum results, cells are tested and sorted using technology from Baccini S.P.A (Italy). EL tests before and after lamination ensure high quality, and automatic gluing provides uniformity and stability in the framing process.
