AIKO has announced significant distributed market momentum at Intersolar Europe, the company opening limited pre-orders for its new Z Series through nine distribution partners across Europe, alongside additional distributed generation (DG) contracts totalling 1GW.
Designed exclusively for the premium residential market, the Z Series sets a new industry benchmark as the first all-black 500W module under 2m². The 54-cell module delivers 500W within a compact footprint of 1762 × 1134mm, achieving approximately 30W higher power output than comparable TOPCon products with the same area.
The Z Series redefines residential solar across the four dimensions of Ultimate Black, fully integrated pure black design with no front-side busbars and uniform cell coloration, Ultimate Power, built on ABC cell efficiency of 27.4% and an active area ratio of 97%, Ultimate Reliability, backed by a 40-year product warranty and 40-year performance warranty and Ultimate Fire Resistance, with hotspot temperature controlled below 100°C.
Webster Yan, President of AIKO Europe, commented: “With the Z Series, we are bringing to the European market a product that makes zero compromise across aesthetics, power, reliability and safety. The strong pre-order response from nine distribution partners confirms that the market is ready for a solar product that delivers both uncompromised performance and uncompromised elegance. This limited pre-order launch reflects our commitment to maintaining the highest quality standards while meeting growing demand.”
Beyond the pre-orders, AIKO signed additional DG contracts totaling 1GW during the show, further reinforcing the strong demand for its ABC technology across Europe’s distributed generation segment. The contracts and Z Series pre-orders underscore AIKO’s accelerating growth in the European market, where ABC technology now holds a share of over 21% in the residential PV segment.
