heterojunction

Generation benefits from bifacial modules have gained high price premiums compared to their monofacial counterparts, according to a report from the Clean Energy Associates (CEA).

Chinese solar manufacturer Trinasolar has set a 25.44% module efficiency record with a solar total passivation (TOPAS) heterojunction (HJT) PV module.

Round-up of news from China with solar module manufacturers Trina Solar, GCL-Perovskite and Chinese firm Shanghai Electric.

NuVision Solar, a new US-based solar manufacturer, has been formed and aims to build a heterojunction (HJT) solar cell and module assembly plant in the US.

Both companies had signed a long-term supply agreement for up to 5GW of modules back in 2022, with deliveries expected between 2024 and 2029.

Degradation issues identified in new cell technologies such as TOPCon and HJT underscore the importance of module stability as well as efficiency. Tom Kenning reports on the testing of next-generation modules and efforts to ensure their longevity in the field.

Tongwei has set a record for heterojunction (HJT) power output, with its latest module delivering a maximum power output of 776.2W.

Chinese solar manufacturer Huasun has secured a bid to supply 1GW of heterojunction (HJT) modules to a floating solar PV (FPV) project in China.

Trina Solar and FuturaSun were awarded funding in the latest Innovation Fund for a 1.5GW HJT and 1.4GW xBC module assembly plant, respectively.

LONGi and the School of Materials at Sun Yat-sen have developed HJT back contact solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 27.09%.
