ONTARIO, CA, UNITED STATES, December 24, 2025 -- Renogy, an American provider of off-grid and mobile energy solutions, declared that its ShadowFlux™ solar module has received official recognition from Frost & Sullivan as the world's first rigid solar panel featuring cell-level shadow management technology. This honor marks Renogy's second "world's first" market standing certification, subsequent to Frost & Sullivan's prior confirmation of Renogy's smart, portable solid-state batteries for mobile energy storage.

"Our decision to pursue independent certification is fundamentally about building customer confidence," said Renogy's Head of Marketing. "Off-grid power solutions like solar panels and lithium batteries are becoming more important as the market grows, but for many people, they're still not part of everyday life. While suppliers can market performance and features with data, real-world performance takes time to prove."

"That is why Renogy conducts rigorous real-life simulations on our products and partners with esteemed third-party bodies like Frost & Sullivan to confirm our statements. By integrating field testing with independent validation, we seek to educate consumers, minimize uncertainty about reliability and safety, and help partners and OEMs make confident decisions." Shading is one of the most frequent and unavoidable obstacles in solar energy harvesting, particularly in applications including RVs, boats, overland vehicles, and residential roofs where shadows from antennas, trees, rails, or nearby objects regularly occur. Typical rigid solar panels encounter significant power reduction when even a small part is shaded.

Per Frost & Sullivan's independent market analysis, ShadowFlux is the first commercially launched rigid solar panel to embed cell-level shadow management.

This technology permits unaffected cells to maintain operation when part of the panel is shaded, rather than lowering output throughout the entire panel. In partial-shading situations, testing reveals ShadowFlux can provide up to approximately 85% increased energy output versus standard rigid solar panels, depending on shading patterns and installation conditions—resulting in steadier and more reliable electricity production in practical use.

Alongside the market position recognition, ShadowFlux has undergone reliability testing to examine its performance steadiness in real environments. Working with an IECEE CBTL-accredited laboratory, the product underwent more than 48 extreme reliability tests simulating years of field conditions, including exposure to temperature changes, humidity, vibration, and mechanical stress, to evaluate long-term endurance in tough use cases.
