SANYO Solar is to Present Their New Look as Panasonic Solar at Ecobuild

LONDON, March 9, 2012/PRNewswire/ --

    SANYO Component Europe GmbH (SANYO), a group company of Panasonic, is very pleased to
announce that it will be exhibiting at this year's Ecobuild, the world's biggest event for
sustainable design, construction and the built environment, to be held at ExCeL London in
the UK from Tuesday 20 - Thursday 22 March 2012. This year, SANYO will be exhibiting at
Stand Nr. N3910.

    At the booth this year, special focus will be on the upcoming "Panasonic" brand change
for SANYO HIT(R) solar modules, which will take affect from 1 April 2012. Sales and
marketing staff will be on hand at the booth to explain the shift to the Panasonic brand
and answer any questions that visitors may have about the brand change.

    In addition, the team will also be displaying information about the Panasonic HIT
Premium Installer Programme, the company's dedicated PV installer support programme.
Launched in September 2011 in the UK following similar successful schemes introduced in
other countries in Europe, the programme is designed to support PV installers in the UK,
providing them with sales leads from their region, the latest information on products and
technology and their own customisable micro site to help promote their business. At the
booth, potential participants of the programme will have the opportunity to learn
first-hand about the programme and see the benefits it can bring to their business.

    On display at the booth will be a number of models from the highly-acclaimed HIT(R)[1]
solar module series. HIT(R) solar modules are based on thin mono crystalline silicon
wafers surrounded by ultra-thin amorphous silicon layers to deliver high conversion
efficiency, outstanding temperature characteristics and higher output power on a given
roof area compared to conventional crystalline modules. Exhibited at the booth this year
will be the HIT(R) N240, the company's most efficient HIT(R) solar module to date with a
module conversion efficiency of 19.0%, the HIT(R) HD250, with a module conversion
efficiency of 18.0%, and the HIT(R) Double bifacial solar module series, as well as a
preview of the upcoming "Black Back-Sheet" solar module.

    Panasonic is committed to providing products and services that meet the needs of the
European solar market. By drawing on the group's expertise in solar and battery
technology, the company is aiming to become "No. 1 Green Innovation Company in the
Electronics Industry" by 2018.

    [1] The name "HIT(R)" comes from "Heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin-layer".
