Vietnam's Boviet Solar Confirms 255 MW Solar Capacity Win in the United States

  • Vietnam-headquartered Boviet Solar has actually authorized a contract with a renewable energy provider to supply 255 MW of PV Modules for a utility-scale solar project in the USA.

The order comes also as the shadow of vindictive duties on exports from Vietnam to the United States have been lifted last week for a two year period.

Vietnam-headquartered Boviet Solar has actually signed an agreement with a renewable energy provider to supply 255 MW of PV Modules for a utility-scale solar project in the USA. It has a 1.5 GW Monocrystalline PERC Cell & Module Manufacturing capacity.

Boviet Solar makes monocrystalline wafer innovation integrated with PERC, half-cut, multi-busbar, Monofacial, as well as Bifacial PV with large cell design, as well as solid manufactured modules.

Given that 2019, Boviet Solar's modules have gotten on the top efficiency list of PVEL, and also considering that 2017, it has actually been on the Tier 1 item title list offered by BloombergNEF, asserts the company.

The programmer selected PERC Monocrystalline-- Bifacial Double-Glass PV Modules with 550 Watt output. This series is referred to as the Vega Series. The Vega Series modulescome with the complying with features:

  • 10 busbars solar cells
  • 144 cells
  • A silver frame
  • Transparent backsheet
  • Module performance of 21.1%.
  • System voltage of 1000/1500 V DC.
  • Optimum power outcome is 433 W.
  • Each module dimension should be 90.40 x 44.65 x 1.38 inches.
  • 25-year direct outcome guarantee.
  • ( consists of 2.5% deterioration in the initial year and less than 0.6% deterioration from the 2nd year till the warranty runs out.).
  • It additionally features a 12-year manufacturer's warranty.

Sienna Cen who is the Head Of State of Boviet Solar USA stated that "Our Monofacial and also Bifacial PV modules are made with far better modern technology in mind, made from durable item components under rigorous quality assurance actions and using modern manufacturing procedures. Consequently, customers can mitigate their project danger, reduced their balance of system (BOS) price, reduced the Levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), get a wonderful roi (ROI), as well as understand long-lasting, trusted power generation, and also financial savings".

The volume at which Vietnam-based solar module suppliers are producing is a clear indicator that the anxiety of anti dumping duties from the United States is raising. The United States Department of Business was doing an examination on Vietnam, Malaysia, Cambodia, and also Thailand-based module producers. Because of this investigation, the demand and supply of solar modules ended up being out of balance which led to a decrease in the utility-scale solar projects in the United States. The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) of the US cut its utility-scale solar implementation projections in half as a result of the investigation's unpredictability, but an executive order signed by the Biden administration last week removed the possibility of tariffs, which could have ranged from 50 percent to 250 percent of delivered module rates, for 2 years.
