Silicon Energy was nominated for the GCCA Later Stage Award by the Washington Clean Technology Alliance in May 2013 for addressing the solar industry’s quality and durability issues.

Silicon Energy’s Cascade PV module and mounting system fully encloses all system wiring. Silicon Energy uses an advanced encapsulant resulting in a Class-A Fire Safety rating and a Potential-Induced degradation (PID) free module. In National Renewable Energy Laboratory “Test-to-Failure” testing, the Cascade outperformed standard PV modules.
