Yingli Green Energy is building a 100MW ‘Topper Runner’ project in Wuhai City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China using its ‘PANDA’ monocrystalline bifacial modules, the largest project to date deploying bifacial modules in the world.

Major PV manufacturer Yingli Green Energy is building a 100MW ‘Top Runner’ project in Wuhai City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China using its ‘PANDA’ monocrystalline bifacial modules, the largest project to date deploying bifacial modules in the world. 

Yingli Green has already deployed its bifacial modules at the Datong 50MW Top Runner project in Shanxi province, China in 2016, currently the largest deployment of bifacial modules.

“We are glad to participate in “Top Runner” program again with our reliable and high efficient products,” commented Liansheng Miao, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Yingli. “Data shows that, since the grid-connection of the Datong 50 MW 'Top Runner' project, which utilized PANDA Bifacial panels, its monthly energy yield is up to approximately 17% higher than typical multi-crystalline solar plants. We believe that this project will be another sample of Yingli's efforts in technological innovations to increase the efficiency and reduce the cost of solar power generation.”

Yingli Green noted that the 100MW project in Inner Mongolia was expected to be completed and grid connected in June 2018.
