Coinciding with this year’s International Exhibition of Environmental Protection and Pollution Control Technology event, China Sunergy took the opportunity to promote its high-efficiency QSAR modules in Bangkok, Thailand. The company’s event introduced the QSAR modules to Thailand Provincial Electric Authority officials, local banks, customers and investors, such as Bangchak Petroleum Public, Ratchaburi Electricity Generating Holding Public and IRPC Public.
Stephen Cai, CEO of China Sunergy commented, “Thailand is a market with great potential. It has a national solar target of 2GW to be installed by 2020 and a total renewable energy generation target of 25% of all energy by 2021. Our highly efficient solar modules are showing excellent temperature co-efficiency performance when tested by Photon Laboratory. This results in a lower efficiency loss even in high temperature climates which particularly suits markets like Thailand.”

“Considering macroeconomic and industry uncertainties, especially in the developed solar markets, we continue to further diversify our sales into emerging markets, including Thailand, Japan and China, where we believe there are great growth opportunities for China Sunergy,” Cai added.
The company began commercial production of the QSAR modules in October 2011. It advised that during Q1 2012, conversion efficiency rates in the cells reached 19.1% on batch average, with the highest rate at 19.4%.
