Chinese photo voltaic module producer Longi has unveiled a brand new module sequence based mostly on proprietary hybrid passivated again contact (HPBC) cell know-how.

The firm has but to clarify what precisely HPBC is, however it’s believed to be an extension of p-type interdigitated back-contact (IBC) know-how that mixes the structural benefits of PERC, TOPCon, and IBC photo voltaic. In addition, BC know-how may be mixed with p-type wafers, the place Longi has a big manufacturing capability, giving it a bonus over the extra frequent IBC know-how.

The new Hi-MO X6 Scientist panel is on the market in three variations with energy output from 620 W to 630 W and energy conversion effectivity from 23.0% to 23.3%. The open-circuit voltage is between 52.72 V and 53.02 V and the short-circuit present is between 14.93 A and 15.07 A.

The modules have a temperature coefficient of -0.28%/C and a most system voltage of 1,500. Their measurement is 2,382 mm x 1,134 mm x 30 mm and their weight is 28.5 kg. They additionally characteristic IP68 junction bins, an anodized aluminum alloy body, and three.2 mm coated tempered glass.

The new merchandise include a 25-year linear energy output guarantee, with The 25-year ultimate energy output is assured to be at least 89.4% of the nominal energy output.

“The Hi-MO X6 sequence represents an essential milestone for the corporate, following industry-wide consensus on module measurement requirements reached by 9 producers and subsequent settlement with wafer measurement normal amongst six producers in July and August 2023,” Longi mentioned. an announcement. “The Hi-MO X6 sequence entered mass manufacturing within the present quarter, with an entire transition for all mainstream merchandise anticipated in Q3 2024.”

In March, Longi launched the Hi-MO X6 Explorer and Hi-MO X6 Guardian modules.
