CNPV Launches High Performance 60-Cell 156mm Mono Crystalline Premium Module Series Power
Range from 240Wp to 250Wp
DONGYING, Jan. 7 /PRNewswire-Asia-AsiaNet/--
CNPV Solar Power SA, a leading integrated manufacturer of solar photovoltaic products -- from the
production of ingots, wafers and cells to the assembly of PV modules -- that designs, manufactures and
supplies highly efficient and cost effective crystalline solar photovoltaic modules, today announced the launch
of the company's premium photovoltaic modules series with power ranging from 240Wp-250Wp made with
high efficiency 156x156mm mono crystalline cells. The premium module series was recently launched and
displayed at the 24th EUPVSEC held in Hamburg, Germany. CNPV has already shipped 10MWp of these
premium modules to Germany, France, Belgium, and the Czech Republic for rooftop applications.
The 60-cell premium module series features large, high-efficiency mono crystalline silicon solar cells, anti-
reflection coated glass and high conductivity interconnected materials. The larger diameter (200mm) of the
cells compared to the standard (195mm) with their high conversion efficiencies (17.5%) outperforms the
industry average by 8%, which translates a module efficiency of 15.25%+. The anti-reflection coated glass
ensures 93% transmittance at STC level and provides an additional 3% performance at field level installations.
The soft, ductile and high-conductivity interconnected ribbons ensure minimal resistive power losses both at
standard testing and field levels.
The series is backed by CNPV's 25-year power output and 10-year product workmanship warranty. The
modules have received IEC 5400Pa certification verifying their ability to withstand high wind pressure and
heavy snow. The premium modules are in production and available at 240Wp-250Wp power ratings. CNPV
markets the modules with the classification CNPV-225M to CNPV-235M as standard series and CNPV-240M
to CNPV-250M as its premium series.
B. Veerraju Chaudary, CNPV's COO and CTO, said, "CNPV is the first in its field to attain IEC certification
for and begin sale of this class of modules series. This is a tremendous achievement for CNPV and clearly
demonstrates the power and versatility of the premium module series technology. The premium modules
series development is part of CNPV's extensive R&D program dedicated to continuously improving module
efficiency."
"The IEC61215 Ed2 & IEC61730 certifications confirm CNPV's high performance crystalline solar
photovoltaic premium module design and manufacturing processes adhere to the commission's stringent
requirements for functional, mechanical and safety capabilities for long-term performance operation under
open air environments, and validate our improvements in manufacturing standards and process efficiencies
and our commitments to operating performance, safety and stability," said jointly Mr. Zhang Shunfu, CEO & B.
Veerraju Chaudary, COO, CTO & Member of the Board of CNPV. "We look forward to working closely with
ICIM, Euro Test Lab Italy, TUV Germany, UL Groups and other international testing organizations as we
continue to enhance our research and development efforts."
