CNPV Launches High Density Power PV Modules
By Cnpv Solar Power Sa, PRNEThursday, June 3, 2010
LUXEMBOURG and DONGYING, China, June 4, 2010 - CNPV Solar Power SA, a leading integrated manufacturer of solar
photovoltaic products, today announced the launch of the company's premium
photovoltaic modules series with power ranging from 295Wp to 305Wp made with
high efficiency 156×156mm mono crystalline cells for Utility scale
applications. The premium module series will be displayed at the Intersolar
Europe Exhibition held in Munich, Germany from 9-11th June 2010. CNPV has
already shipped 10MWp of these premium modules to a key strategic partner in
Europe for a wide variety of applications ranging from commercial and
industrial installations to utility-scale facilities.

The 72-cell premium module features large area, 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 15.50%+. The enhanced anti-reflection coated glass
ensures 94% transmittance at STC level and provides an additional 3%
performance at field level installations. The use of soft, ductile and
high-conductivity interconnected ribbons ensure minimal resistive power
losses both at standard testing and field levels. The net effect is increased
power without increasing surface area required for installation.
The premium module series is backed by CNPV's 25-year power output and
10-year product workmanship warranty from reputed European insurance
companies. The premium modules are in production and available at 295Wp to
305Wp power ratings. CNPV markets the modules with the classification
CNPV-285M to CNPV-290M as standard series and CNPV-295M to CNPV-305M as its
premium series.
B. Veerraju Chaudary, CNPV's COO and CTO, said, "CNPV is the first in its
field to develop and attain IEC certification for, and begin sale of, this
high power, high efficiency range. This is a tremendous achievement for CNPV
and once again allows us to satisfy the tough requirements that our customers
demand. The development is part of CNPV's extensive R&D program, dedicated to
continuously improving module efficiency. Matching a competitive price
structure with proven high performance premium series modules is the way the
solar industry will achieve grid parity. The introduction of the CNPV high
performance premium series is a big step towards achieving this goal."
"The IEC61215 Ed2 & IEC61730 certifications confirm CNPV's high
performance crystalline solar photovoltaic premium module design and
manufacturing processes adhere and surpass 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 Mr. Zhang
Shunfu, CEO of CNPV. "We look forward to working closely with ICIM Italy, TUV
Germany, UL Groups and other international testing organizations as we
continue to enhance our research and development efforts."
