It takes 365 days for the earth to complete
its annual path around the sun. And every
one of those days offers an endless source of
sustainable energy for our homes, our cities,
and our world. LG has been a leader in the
industry for over a quarter century, firm in our
belief that making the most of renewable solar
energy is more than just good business—it’s
good for our planet’s future.
Solar Energy
An early innovator, a current leader
LG has been committed to sustainable solar solutions since 1985. The pioneering research and development of our
engineers can be seen in our continued advancements, our innovative products, and in the exponential growth of our
business. In 2012 we delivered solar modules to 32 countries around the world. Furthermore, the 2013’s brand-new
model, MonoX™* NeON, has proved its innovation by winning an award at Intersolar EU, the largest solar exhibition in
the world. And the MonoX™ NeON is not just the flagship module for LG…it is the standard the entire industry follows.
Quality second to none
We don’t just claim to offer the highest quality products. The LG Severe Environment Test (LG SET) includes 15
strenuous tests that recreate the most severe conditions our modules might endure in diverse environments around
the world. And we back up our promise with a 25-year output warranty. Because, when it comes to powering your
home or business, failure is not an option.
More patents, the most efficiency
Our researchers continue to push the boundaries on solar efficiency, and their efforts have earned the most patents
in the industry for three years in a row. In 2012, we achieved the highest efficiency in a P-type cell. And, in 2013,
we launched the MonoX™ NeON, a high end N-type cell product that delivers 20% better performance than general
market products. Where will our path for efficiency take us next?
Meeting customer needs
The list of ways customers are using solar power grows every day. At LG, we speak with installers and end-users
around the world to understand and anticipate their expanding applications. And to deliver products that are easier
to install, reliable in more diverse conditions, and that continue to deliver efficient and sustainable power to meet the
world’s growing needs. Solar will continue to power the future growth of our company long into the future.
* MonoX™: The brand name of LG’s high efficiency mono crystalline solar module.
