Achieving higher efficiencies at mass production stage results in lower levelised cost of electricity (LCOE). Wang discusses how this and some of the company’s other technological advances in TOPCon have been achieved.

Solar N Plus has a major focus on N-type TOPCon technologies, but its R&D teams work on a broad range of technologies, showcasing its latest “R&D achievements” in PV cell, module and energy storage at SNEC 2023, Wang tells us.
