2020 module market projection
According to PV InfoLink's data source, JinkoSolar covered the 2019 positions for worldwide module deliveries with about 14 GW-- much greater than any one of its opponents. Especially, this is not the very first time Jinko has actually safeguarded the No. 1 area; it has actually stayed clear of sliding from the top as a lot of its precursors performed in the sector's earlier years. The firm is adhered to by JA Solar and also Trina Solar (each delivery greater than 10 GW), and after that Longi, Canadian Solar, Hanwha Q Cells, Risen Energy, Suntech, Astronergy, and also Talesun.

New thermodynamic formula to calculate bifacial gains
An American research team developed the new formula by applying to bifacial cells the Shockley-Queisser triangle, which is used to calculate the maximum theoretical efficiency of a monofacial solar cell using a single p-n junction technology. According to the group’s findings, the the triangle can help to clarify the deeper physical principles of the bifacial technology.

Fraunhofer ISE displays colored solar car roof at auto trade fair
An increasing number of carmakers and research institutes are developing concepts that combine e-mobility and solar. Thus far, range additions from in-car panels of between 10 and 60km are the limit of innovation. The Fraunhofer roof is tinted with a color that hides the cells but lets through most of the light.
