Italy’s FuturaSun has developed new bifacial double-glass PV modules based mostly on n-type heterojunction (HJT) half-cut multi-busbar photo voltaic cells. The Velvet Professional line options M6 cells with energy scores from 380 W to 480 W for rooftop purposes. The Velvet Premium line options M12 cells, with energy scores from 615 W to 700 W for giant purposes.
FuturaSun enters the heterojunction (HJT) market with a brand new line of bifacial, n-type, half-cut multi-busbar HJT photo voltaic modules for rooftop arrays and large-scale purposes.
“The bifaciality issue of the Velvet module ends in roughly 15% increased than the usual worth of the bifacial module based mostly on PERC know-how,” the Italy-based module producer stated, asserting that their bifaciality issue reaches 85%.
The Velvet Professional line for residential and industrial rooftop purposes has a glass-glass construction with 120 or 144 HJT multi-busbar half-cut M6 cells. The modules with 120 cells are available 5 variations, with energy scores from 380 W to 400 W, and energy efficiencies from 20.9% to 22.0%. The open-circuit voltage is between 44.46 V and 44.88 V and the short-circuit voltage present is from 10.73 A to 11.12 A.
They measure 1,755 mm x 1,038 mm x 30 mm and weigh 23.5 kg. The entrance aspect is roofed with a 2 mm anti-reflection coating glass whereas the again aspect comes as a 2 mm white or clear glass.
“The glass-glass construction ensures excessive load-bearing capability, sturdy mechanical stability, and distinctive resistance to climate brokers,” stated FuturaSun. “As well as, it reduces the chance of micro-cracks, snail observe impact, and corrosion ensuing from humidity, sand, and salt fog.”
The modules with 144 HJT cells additionally are available 5 variations, with energy scores from 460 W to 480 W, and energy efficiencies from 21.2% to 22.1%. The open-circuit voltage is between 53.21 V and 53.76 V and the short-circuit voltage present ranges from 10.59 A to 10.81 A. They measure 2,094 mm x 1,038 mm x 30 mm and weigh which is 27.5 kg.
The Velvet Premium line for industrial and utility-scale PV techniques encompasses a glass-glass construction with 120 or 132 HJT multi-busbar, half-cut G12 cells.
The modules with 120 cells are available 5 variations, with energy scores from 615 W to 635 W, and energy efficiencies from 21.7% to 22.4%. The open-circuit voltage is between 44.76 V and 45.47 V and the short-circuit voltage present ranges from 17.18 A to 17.42 A. They measure 2,172 mm x 1,303 mm x 35 mm and weigh which is 35.3 kg.
The modules with 132 HJT cells additionally are available 5 variations, with energy scores from 680 W to 700 W, and energy efficiencies from 21.9% to 22.5%. The open-circuit voltage is between 49.51 V and 50.14 V and the short-circuit voltage present ranges from 17.19 A to 17.42 A. They measure 2,384 mm x 1,303 mm x 35 mm and weigh which is 38.7 kg.
The brand new merchandise can work with a most system voltage of 1,500 V and have an IP67 / IP68 junction field with anodized aluminum frames. They’ve a temperature coefficient of -0.26% per diploma Celsius and their working temperature ranges from -40 C to 85 C.
They’ve a 30-year linear energy output guarantee and a 15-year product guarantee. The degradation within the first 12 months is claimed to be 1.0% and the 30-year ending energy output is assured to be at least 88% of the nominal output energy.
“This stability can also be because of the new module of the cells, which is light-induced degradation (LID) resistant, as a result of the n-type cells are doped with phosphorus and never boron,” stated FuturaSun.
