The two-pronged attack of vastly growing solar capacity and the shift to n-type technologies has converged to make silver a real pressure point for future solar manufacturing.

Singulus Technologies has formed a new joint venture, Singulus Solar, to provide manufacturing equipment for TOPCon and heterojunction (HJT) cells and modules.

PV Tech's coverage of the SNEC 2024 trade show continues on day two, kicking off with a discussion with GCL System Integration.

Chinese solar PV manufacturer JinkoSolar has achieved a 25.42% conversion efficiency with a 182mm TOPCon module.

Module manufacturer Canadian Solar has inaugurated its first production facility in the US with a 5GW TOPCon module assembly plant.

The price of solar PV modules has hit bottom in the US, in response to the latest antidumping and countervailing duty (AD/CVD) petition and solar tariffs.

University of New South Wales' Bram Hoex discusses why stability is as important as the higher efficiencies offered by cell technologies such as TOPCon and HJT.

Silicon-based tandem solar cells and modules are expected to enter commercial production in 2027 with a module efficiency of 27%, according to the latest International Technology Roadmap for Photovoltaic (ITRPV) published by German engineering association VDMA.

Leapton Energy has launched a series of tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) modules with a maximum power conversion efficiency of 22.95%.

JinkoSolar has developed a new tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) perovskite tandem cell, with a power conversion efficiency of 33.24%.
