In an effort to cut down on CTM (cell to module) losses, WINAICO implemented PERC technology into its modules, reducing CTM losses to below 1%.

Sascha Rossmann, vice president of global sales for WINAICO, said: “WINAICO has more than 2 years of experience in mass producing PERC solar modules, so it is not surprising for us to be the first in the world to mass produce 300 W 60-cell PERC monocrystalline modules.

“Passing the IEC certification tests with TÜV Rheinland shows we are ready to mass produce and ship the 300 W modules to all major markets worldwide.”
