Among the Largest Roof-top PV Plants In Germany; One Million kWh of 
Solar Energy Annually 
 
Sandvika, Norway, September 21, 2009 - Reflecting REC's continued 
expansion into the commercial roof-top segment and growing interest 
in solar energy from global companies, more than 4,500 REC modules 
have been installed on the roof of the new Hugo Boss logistics center 
in Metzingen, Germany by REC partner GOLDBECK, a large construction 
company focusing on industrial roof-top and ground mounted PV 
installations.  The 22,000 square-meter roof-top solar installation 
is among the largest and most powerful in the country, expected to 
produce around one million kWh of solar energy each year and reduce 
greenhouse gas emissions by 540 tons. 
 
"This significant installation of solar modules underscores the 
important development of deploying solar modules on commercial 
roof-tops," said Mr. John Andersen Jr, REC EVP & Group COO.  "We are 
pleased to partner with GOLDBECK on this project and proud that Hugo 
Boss chose REC's high performance solar modules to help power its new 
logistics center." 
 
Added Mr. Joachim Goldbeck, Managing Director, GOLDBECK; " In the 
industry it is becoming common knowledge, that economically and 
ecologically sustainable and attractive actions are jointly available 
and actually irreversibly merging. We are effectively seeing more 
global companies turning to solar." We look forward to continuing to 
work with REC, which has proven to be a dependable partner committed 
to quality."
