AIKO has signed an agreement with Segen, the UK’s leading distributor of solar PV and energy storage systems, for the supply of its innovative, high efficiency ABC (All Back Contact) modules to Segen’s UK and European markets.
“AIKO attaches great importance to the establishment of a long-term cooperative relationship with Segen for a stronger presence in Europe and we are confident that Segen will succeed in broadening our reach, maximising the benefits that solar energy offers for a sustainable future,” commented AIKO CEO Tiger Lu.
Segen Managing Director Dave Rice added “We’re delighted to introduce Aiko Solar’s innovative N-Type ABC technology panels into our offering. With panel efficiencies of up to 24%, they’re the most efficient modules commercially available worldwide and boast impressive robustness, with annual performance degradation of ≤0.35%, backed by a 30-year performance warranty.”
“The three models we are launching suit a wide range of our customers’ needs,” continued Liz MacFarlane, sales VP for Segen. “The 600-620Wp 72 cell modules are especially attractive for maximising project profitability in commercial and industrial applications and, for residential and light-commercial applications, the 445-465Wp all black and white back sheet panels are not just highly efficient but also have excellent visual appeal with a very pure black aesthetic.”
“This is all thanks to the all-back contact (ABC) technology which eliminates grid line shading losses, whilst also creating a clean visual appearance,” concluded James Galloway, the company’s European Technical Director. “Credit to Aiko for this achievement which is testament to their continued cell R&D and production investment for well over a decade now.”
