- LONGi sets new world record in silicon solar cell efficiency and launches second-generation BC-based ultra-efficient module

- An innovative solar panel manufacturer announces a new record in silicon heterojunction back-contact solar cell efficiency of 27.30%, consolidating its leadership in the global solar energy industry.

- LONGi also introduces its new Hi-MO 9 solar module, which features an industry-leading silicon solar module conversion efficiency of up to 24.43%.

MADRID, May 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- LONGi Green Energy Technology Co. announces that the company has broken another world record for silicon solar cell efficiency just 4 months after it last set a world record in this area on May 7th. As certified by the German Solar Energy Research Institute Hamelin (ISFH), the new silicon heterojunction back contact (HBC) solar cells designed by LONGi have achieved an efficiency of 27.30% under laboratory conditions. The new record was announced at a celebration event where they also unveiled a new product, the Hi-MO 9. Guests at this event included LONGi founder and president Li Zhenguo, vice president Dennis She, chief scientist and Dr. Xu Xixiang and customer representatives from all over the world.

LONGi has consolidated its leadership in the global solar energy industry

The announcement represents the 17th time the company has set a world record for solar cell efficiency since April 2021.

The achievement has firmly established LONGi as a leader in crystalline silicon photovoltaics: the company now holds the double world record for both crystalline silicon solar cell efficiency and crystalline silicon-perovskite tandem solar cell efficiency. In November 2023, LONGi announced that the company had set an additional world record for crystalline silicon-perovskite tandem solar cell efficiency of 33.9%.

Introducing the Hi-MO 9 module

At a celebratory event held in Madrid, Spain, on the afternoon of May 7, LONGi launched its new flagship Hi-MO 9 module. The Hi-MO 9 is a solar module with capacities of up to 660 W, based on the technology of Second-generation Hybrid Passivated Back Contact (HPBC) solar cells and the TaiRay wafer, a silicon wafer launched by LONGi in March 2024, and the Hi-MO 9. The MO 9 module features a conversion efficiency of up to 24 .43%, designed to excel in a variety of harsh environments (including lakes, mountains and deserts).

Dennis She, Vice President of LONGi Green Energy Technology Co., explained: "Our new Hi-MO 9 module enables world-leading power generation and outperforms other technologies on the market in an equal land use scenario. What's more , retains this performance throughout its life, as the module is designed to the highest reliability standards. Power plant owners can be assured that a plant built with the Hi-MO 9 module will help them make use of it. most efficient use of your land and get the most value out of sunlight.

The panels will be produced at the company's Jiaxing production base, which has been recognized by the World Economic Forum as a Global Lighthouse Factory, a group of factories considered to be accelerating the adoption of Fourth Industrial Revolution technologies in the manufacturing.
