VSUN has introduced a new half-cell module with a power output of up to 450W, produced by a 166 mm ‘large-format’ silicon wafer, the manufacturer’s multi-busbar technology and PERC half-cell technology.
This version of VSUN 450W+ has a recorded conversion efficiency of 20.37 percent.
The VSUN450W+ could help investors reduce costs and offer higher ROI ( return on investment) with both lower BOS (system balance) costs and lower LCOE (levelized cost of energy), and it could also become the best option for investors in global scale power stations, the company explained.
