Jinergy gets bifacial HJ modules approved for UAE projects, while
LONGi teams with BayWa r.e. on global distribution deal and JinkoSolar supplies 132MW of modules to Swinerton for Nevada project.
Recently billed by solar industry experts as another degradation crisis that could be worse than the impact on PV module performance than PID (potential Induced Degradation), ‘Silicon Module Super League’ (SMSL) member, Hanwha Q CELLS has highlighted that both its mono and multicrystalline products have performed exceptionally well in LeTID (Light and elevated Temperature Induced Degradation) tests undertaken by Fraunhofer CSP.
Seraphim Solar will establish 500MW of solar cell manufacturing capacity in South Africa. The expansion plans also include facilities for 200MW of half-cut cell module assembly in the country.
European solar industry trade body SolarPower Europe has said it has started a major campaign to bring back at least 5GW of large-scale PV manufacturing in the region, including the complete supply chain required to support the scheme.
‘Silicon Module Super League’ (SMSL) member Hanwha Q CELLS has lowered its full-year module shipment guidance a second time this year as business growth slows.
‘Silicon Module Super League’ (SMSL) member GCL System Integrated Technology (GCL-SI) has agreed to take full control of Huajun International Group’s PV manufacturing operations (Huajun Power Technology (Jiangsu) Co), as part of a cooperation framework agreement that would last for three years.
‘Silicon Module Super League’ (SMSL) leader JinkoSolar is expecting to lower its capital expenditure (capex) in 2019 after almost tripling in-house capacity (ingot/wafer, cell and module), since 2015.
‘Silicon Module Super League’ (SMSL) leader JinkoSolar has reported record PV module shipments in the third quarter of 2018, while slightly lowering full-year shipment guidance.
SPONSORED: Chinese manufacturers are forced to expand their market share overseas as a result of the domestic cap on PV deployment. JA Solar reveals how it found success in Japan and how that provides a springboard for further gains in international markets.
When we visit conferences and industrial players, we are very often surprised at how many responsible scientists for PERC production have never heard about the severe degradation effects that PERC devices can show – in particular when talking about LeTID (Light and elevated Temperature Induced Degradation) alias Carrier Induced Degradation (CID).
