Achieving a 40-year module warranty through data science and engineering
How long does a solar system last? On March 3, Maxeon will show how testing, field data, modelling, and design enhancements have given the company enough confidence to support a 40-year warranty.
Distributed benefits: Large wafer modules in rooftop PV
The transition to larger cell formats is well underway, with 182mm and 210mm products together representing almost 50% of the market last year. Discussion of the benefits, however, has often focused on large-scale solar projects. This has left many to wonder whether the space-constrained rooftop segment would also see the lower cost and higher energy yields promised by the new generation of PV modules. In this pv magazine Webinar, we take a closer look at how rooftop PV is managing the transition, and Longi Solar introduces its latest product for this segment, a 54-cell, 410 W module based on the 182mm wafer.
New Fraunhofer study details multi- versus single-MPPT inverters
PV inverter manufacturer Kaco has quantified the compatibility problems of multi-MPPT inverters and high-performance modules in their own study. In this pv magazine Webinar, our speakers will present new research results on the use of multi-MPPT versus single-MPPT inverters and explain why string inverters with only one MPPT do not have such problems compared to multi-MPPT inverters.
N-type TOPCon solar modules conquering new markets
In this pv magazine Webinar, Jinko Solar will present its own TOPCon technology and analyze market trends and the potential for TOPCon over the coming years, especially for markets in the MENA region. Some business cases will be introduced to present the technology main features that, according to the manufacturer, will make TOPCon modules prevail in the global market.
The upside of TOPCon: high efficiency, low degradation in mass production
Australia’s renowned appetite for new technology, alongside its aggressive utility-scale segment, makes the country a particularly interesting one for manufacturers looking to prove their technological developments at scale. So, what promise does n-type TOPCon hold? And why is it particularly useful in Australia’s hot and increasingly humid climate? In this pv magazine Webinar we’ll be having a closer look at n-type PV cell technology, its benefits as well as challenges.
O Green New World – What’s ahead for large-scale projects in Australia?
In this pv magazine Webinar, we will be joined by leading industry professionals with experience across every aspect of Australia’s multifaceted large-scale solar market, considering the current state of affairs and the challenges facing a new wave of large-scale development Down Under, the next phase of large-scale development driven by energy storage and green hydrogen and the new world of big modules and innovative designs, and off-grid solutions.
Why TOPCon is leading the n-type market breakthrough
This year has seen a raft of developments in n-type technology, as the PV manufacturing industry looks to keep both efficiency and long-term performance figures rising. There are a few different cell technologies gaining ground under the banner of n-type, however, tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) looks set to be first to gain a real share of the module market. In this pv magazine Webinar, we analyze market trends and the potential for TOPCon over the coming years, and take a closer look at some of the technological developments allowing this. Chinese manufacturer Jolywood will share details of its technological progress and impressive expansion plans for TOPCon, as well as the increased reliability that allowed it to partner with insurance provider Munich Re to offer 30 years of warranty protection to customers.
Powering the future with NEO n-type TOPCon
Recent years have seen PV manufacturers edge closer to the limits in conversion efficiency that can be achieved with the currently mainstream p-type PERC technology. In the push for ever-improving cell and module performance, many are now looking to bring TOPCon and other n-type cell technologies into mainstream production. In this pv magazine Webinar, we take a closer look at JinkoSolar’s latest Tiger NEO product range, and examine the recent developments with n-type products and their proven potential to keep efficiency figures rising, and the cost of PV energy falling.
Can N-type modules conquer the project market?
Join this pv magazine Webinar to learn about the factors that have led to JinkoSolar’s decision to switch to N-type cells, Jinko’s N-type expansion plans, planned products, and the company’s transition strategy.
Competitive and sustainable: The future of back contact technology
In this pv magazine Webinar we’ll examine the latest developments in back-contact manufacturing, and the materials that go into these modules. Viewers will see why the numbers are beginning to stack up for back-contact, in comparison to multi-busbar and other conventional module technologies. We’ll also hear why the materials and processes used in back-contact manufacturing, when chosen and monitored properly of course, can lead to big improvements on the sustainability side.
