Q CELLS to reveal first gapless solar modules at the 2019 Solar Power International exhibition
Gapless solar module prototypes, the Q.PEAK DUO BLK ML-G9 and the Q.PEAK DUO XL-G9.2, will be exhibited as part of a range of Q CELLS’ high performance modules at Solar Power International, held in Salt Lake City, between September 24-26, 2019.
[Irvine, United States, September 17, 2019] Q CELLS (or “The Company”), one of the largest solar cell and module manufacturers in the world, will reveal prototypes of its first ever gapless solar modules at the 2019 Solar Power International (SPI) exhibition in Salt Lake City, Utah. With its high-performance premium solar modules, the Company is aiming to further strengthen its leadership position in the U.S. residential solar market.*
Q CELLS to showcase its high-quality solar modules and new energy storage system
The Q.PEAK DUO BLK ML-G9 and the Q.PEAK DUO XL-G9.2 are Q CELLS’ first ever gapless solar modules, developed for greater power output and efficiency. The Q.PEAK DUO BLK ML-G9 is an all-black module composed of 132 gapless half-cells with 12 bus-bars. With the use of larger M4 wafers and a gapless design that enables the addition of 12 more cells than the usual 120 half-cells, the Q.PEAK DUO BLK ML-G9 can deliver maximum power output of up to 380 Wp, as well as industry leading efficiency of up to 20.2%. With high power and efficiency and sleek all-black aesthetics, this gapless module prototype is an ideal addition to Q CELLS’ portfolio as it seeks to build on its leadership position in the residential solar market.
Accompanying the Q.PEAK DUO BLK ML-G9 will be its larger gapless cousin, the Q.PEAK DUO XL-G9.2 – a prime module for ground-mounted solar plants thanks to its 156 half-cell composition that delivers a maximum output of up to 455 Wp and efficiency of up to 20.6% with only a slight increase in module size.
Additional highlights of the Q CELLS booth (booth no. 1419) will be the Q.PEAK DUO BLK-G6+ with a guaranteed 25-year product warranty. Manufactured with M4 size larger wafers, the Q.PEAK DUO BLK-G6+ has a maximum output of up to 345 Wp and offers long-term reliability with one of the lowest degradation rates in the industry, which guarantees 85% initial performance in the 25th year of performance. Furthermore, its all-black facade offers optimal aesthetic appeal that is ideal for the rooftops of residential and commercial and industrial buildings.
