Compared to the previous model, the output has increased by 5 W under standard test conditions using the same solar PV module size.

In the contacts for the junction boxes, Kyocera uses soldered joints rather than clamped joints, which offers protection against fire hazards.

The solar PV module frame can withstand a high wind pressure, and a snow load of up to 5400 N/m2.

The KD215GH-2PU is due to be available in Germany as from spring 2010.
