Reliathon

Suntech Power Holdings (STP) has unveiled Reliathon, utility solar platform that would be working toward lowering costs and accelerating the path to grid parity. More power will also be guaranteed, about 13.8%, over the lifetime of the system, and Reliathon will reduce the total costs of the system by 10% and will offer increases in revenue potential.

Reliathon combines module innovations from Suntech, a new utility-grade warranty for the Suntech module, and preferential pricing and business terms on pre-agreements with companies leading the market like Advanced Energy, Array Technologies, Satcon, Siemens Industry and SMA. This is Reliathon's way of improving the industry's current approach to designing large-scale systems.

A combination of product and business terms is summed up with the creation of Reliathon by Suntech. The information needed for this move was developed from specific feedback from customers and dozens of utility industry experts.
