China’s Sunova Photo voltaic has unveiled a brand new n-type photo voltaic module for business and industrial tasks, in addition to utility-scale PV crops.
“The n-type photo voltaic cells of the Sunova Thor modules don’t have any pure light-induced degradation (LID) and an influence technology that may be of over 10% in comparison with typical p-type modules,” an organization spokesperson advised pv journal.
The modules function 144 half-cut monocrystalline cells and weigh 32.5 kg. Their open-circuit voltage ranges between 50.4 V and 51.2 V and the short-circuit present is between 13.93 A and 14.17 A. The utmost system voltage is 1,500 V.
The panels have an IP68 enclosure and a couple of mm of anti-reflecting glass. They’ve a temperature coefficient of -0.31% per diploma Celsius, with an operational temperature starting from -40 C to 85 C.
The brand new panels include a 30-year linear energy output assure and a 15-year product assure. The degradation within the first 12 months is purportedly 1.0% and 30-year finish energy output is assured to be at least 87.4% of the nominal output energy.
“The Thor module is totally licensed and gross sales have now commenced,” the spokesperson stated. “Sunova’s warranties are additionally backed up by famend insurance coverage corporations reminiscent of Ariel r.e. and Lloyds.”
Sunova Photo voltaic is predicated in Wuxi, in China’s Jiangsu province. It presently runs three factories in China and Vietnam, with an combination photo voltaic module manufacturing capability of three GW.
