CNPV Launches High Performance 60-Cell 156mm Mono Crystalline Premium Module Series Power Range from 240Wp to 250Wp

DONGYING, China, January 7 - 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 156×156mm 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."
