On August 10th, Suntech stood out from 2,000 exhibiting companies for its new-generation products “Ultra V 590W high-efficiency mono PERC multi-busbar PV modules” and won the Gigawatt Diamond Award in SNEC 2020 “Top 10 Highlights” event.
Suntech Ultra V modules have been tested, compared and researched repeatedly by Suntech’s technical team. Based on large format 182mm silicon wafers, Suntech Ultra V modules optimize the layout profoundly and adopt high-density cell interconnect technology which shorten distance between the cells, decrease the invalid power generation area greatly, and improve the energy density of the modules when module efficiency can reach up to 21.3%. The combination of half-cut cells, multi-busbar technologies, and the auxiliary materials such as high-efficiency welding strips and high reflective backsheets can improve the utilization rate of the sunlight, with the highest module power of 590W.
Suntech has a particularly optimized module structure design and owns the exclusive patent. The module weighs 24.4KG, 15% lower than the products of the same specification in the market but with greatly improved mechanical load capacity. When the load reaches +5400 / -2400pa, the maximum stress of the module structure is reduced by 23% compared with conventional structure designs, the maximum deformation is reduced by 37%, thus avoiding the risk of micro crack loss and improving the reliability of modules.
Suntech Ultra V Series also released a bifacial layout, compatible with transparent backsheets when needed in project locations, and not only has the features of ultra-high light transmittance and excellent anti-PID performance, but can also effectively reduce the weight by more than 30% compared with the double-glass module. It can also work with the tracing bracket and decrease LCOE effectively. It is applicable to scenarios such as agriculture-fishery-solar hybrid projects (systems), large scale power plant, and power plant in deserts, tidal flats and coastal areas. We are confident that the lower LCOE brought by the high-power generation of Suntech Ultra Series products will set a new trend and development direction for the photovoltaic market in 2020!
