ISO 9001 certified and present in over 60 countries, Marlec is recognized for the quality of its products, its customer service and its performance. Its flagship products include Rutland wind turbines and Spectra solar panels.âeuros
Rutland wind turbines
With nearly 120,000 units sold worldwide, Rutland wind turbines are entirely designed and manufactured in the Corby factory, including the masts and shrouds. The range includes several models for both marine and land-based applications, available in 12V, 24V and 48V.âeuros
Quality and performance
Each wind turbine is individually tested as it leaves the factory, eliminating breakdowns on unpacking. Rutland wind turbines take the load from 3 knots of wind, and are renowned for their quiet operation, as demonstrated by wind tunnel tests. What's more, Marlec provides ongoing technical support, with spare parts available even for older models.âeuros
The Rutland 505
The latest addition to the range, the Rutland 505 is an evolution of the Rutland 504. Compact (50 cm in diameter) and lightweight (3.5 kg), it offers a peak power of 100W, the best size/performance ratio on the market. This increase in power is due to a new winding and an MPPT charge regulator. Ideal for boats up to 10 meters and battery banks of up to 200Ah, the Rutland 505 is designed to optimize energy production on board.âeuros
Spectra Bifacial solar panels
In 2024, Marlec expanded its range with Spectra Bifacial solar panels, available in rigid and semi-flexible versions.âeuros
- Bifacial technology
These innovative panels generate electricity thanks to their front face, which captures direct solar energy, and their back face, which captures energy reflected by the environment, notably water. This principle increases energy production by up to 30% compared with conventional panels. For example, a 400W panel can achieve an output of 520W in optimal conditions. Installation on the boatâ??s rear balcony is ideal for maximizing the capture of light reflected by the sea.âeuros
- Spectralite SemiFlex Biface semi-flexible panel
In 2025, Marlec introduced a 100W semi-flexible bifacial solar panel. Featuring grommets for easy installation and a unique cable for easy connection to the charge regulator, this panel is equipped with an anti-return diode and two bypass diodes to minimize the impact of cast shadows. The high-efficiency monocrystalline cells are encapsulated in composite layers, protecting them from micro-cracking while maintaining flexibility and reducing the risk of hot spots.âeuros
With these innovations, Marlec continues to offer boaters high-performance energy solutions tailored to the demands of modern boating.
