India’s cumulative solar module manufacturing capacity reached 64.5 GW and solar cell capacity 5.8 GW as of December 31, 2023.
The Indian solar industry’s transition to TOPCon and HJT underscores the need for technological upgrades and increased investment in cell manufacturing capabilities.
The Chinese module manufacturer led an international research team seeking silicon material savings and efficiency gains in the development of heterojunction PV devices. The cell achieved a certified power conversion efficiency of 26.06% with a thickness of 57 μm, with Germany’s Institute for Solar Energy Research confirming the result.
EnergyBin has reviewed pricing comparisons and trends in the US secondary market for solar panels.
Enel has obtained €560 million ($610.2 million) for a solar module factory it is building in Catania, Sicily.
Switzerland-based manufacturer Meyer Burger has developed black heterojunction (HJT) solar modules for balconies, featuring 800 W microinverters, smart control units, and mounting systems.
Longi has announced the achievement of 27.09% efficiency for its heterojunction back contact (HBC) solar cell, a result that has been confirmed by Germany’s Institute for Solar Energy Research (ISFH).
The application of busbarless cell interconnection approaches could unlock the potential of heterojunction (HJT) technology, primarily by reducing the historically high silver usage of negatively-doped, “n-type” cell technology. As HJT manufacturing increases, a wave of applications may very well be on the horizon.
At the recent pv magazine RoundtablesUS 2023 event, four experts weighed in on PV module choices now and into the future, with TOPCon in the spotlight, but perovskite and tandem HJT on the not-too-distant horizon.
The Renewable Energy India (REI) Expo 2023 showcased TOPCon solar modules from almost all leading PV manufacturers in India, including Adani, Premier Energies, Waaree, and more.
