Philadelphia Solar (PS) is a specialized solar company that was established in 2007 with a built-up area of 14,200 m² and a current investment of 165 million USD. PS was the first photovoltaic (PV) panel manufacturer company in the MENA region with an annual PV production capacity of 580 MWp, and a steel production capacity of 300 MWp. PS monocrystalline PV panels are produced by state-of-the-art fully automated Japanese and European robotic production lines using the latest equipment and Electroluminescence (EL) in-line inspection machinery. PS panels are suitable to be used for most electrical power applications and have excellent durability in prevailing weather conditions. Some of PS product features include having positive power tolerance up to 3% extra output, excellent low light performance, salt and mist ammonia resistance to endure coastal and agricultural environments, and high technical loads (certified to withstand high wind load of 2400 pa and snow load of 5400 pa). PS Magnelis steel mounting structures are exceptional, the new metallic steel coating providing surface protection in a variety of applications against long-term wear and tear. The unique coating offers a combination of attributes such as having the best corrosion resistance performance; up to 3 times better than the galvanized steel. It is also considered to be the most cost-effective alternative to the post-galvanized processed steel. One of its main features is “self-repairing protection for cut edges” which helps protect exposed cut edges with a thin zinc-based protection film with magnesium, which prevents corrosive reaction. As a manufacturer and an engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractor of photovoltaic systems, PS offers its customers turnkey working systems. From viability studies and obtaining the necessary administrative permits to project designing, engineering, constructing, commissioning and monitoring; PS does it all. Other types of services PS offer include operation and maintenance (O&M), On/Off site training programs, outstanding technical support and after sales service to their customers and partners world-wide.
