Trina introduces 23.39% reliable, readily generated PERC cell

• Due to the fact that its tool was produced on conventional industrial manufacturing devices, the Chinese producer thinks it has actually established a document.

Chinese module manufacturer Trina Solar states its government-supported state vital lab of PV scientific research as well as modern technology has actually produced a 23.39% reliable PERC cell making use of conventional production tools as well as regular manufacturing procedures.

Trina claimed it thinks the gadget is one of the most effective of its kind to have had its efficiency verified by an ISO/IEC 17025-certified calibration lab.

The bifacial 252cm2 cell, which includes the maker's nine-busbar modern technology, was adjusted at ISFH CalTeC in Germany under complete location lighting-- with complete front metallization taken into consideration-- on a brass chuck touching the entire back side, according to its developer.

Trina major researcher Pietro P Altermatt stated: "Each globe document describes a particular classification, like 'research laboratory cell' or 'cast product'. There is no specifically specified group [for an] 'commercial cell' since devices, in automation, progresses gradually as well as it is hard to supply proof of specifically just how the reported cell was refined. In some cases greater PERC cell effectiveness are introduced however without mentioning information regarding metallization, or whether passivating calls were made use of. This makes it tough to analyze progression in the field. This is why we are open concerning our production information."

Trina VP as well as supervisor of its state essential lab Zhiqiang Feng stated: "Our objective is to establish procedures that can be moved to manufacturing and also, for that reason, we made a decision to make such champ PERC cells totally on tools that belongs to basic production lines, like metallization with conventional display printers."
