LONGi, the world leading solar technology company headquartered in Xi’an, China, has officially launched its new 66C type Hi-MO 4 monofacial PV module (Hi-MO 4m) for the global distributed generation (DG) market. With an area of about 2 m2, weight of 22kg and power of 410-420W, the new module can be widely used on rooftops in residential, industrial and commercial applications.
Hi-MO 4m series modules
In
early 2019, LONGi launched its Hi-MO 4 series high-efficiency PV modules for
full scenario applications based on the M6 (166mm) standard monocrystalline
wafer and PERC technology. Within a year of mass production, the Hi-MO 4 series
achieved the remarkable milestone of 10GW in global shipments, gaining wide
industry acceptance and confidence.
As the world
approaches the era of grid parity in 2021, LONGi has re-focused on the specific
demands of the DG market with a view to delivering value for customers in the
sector with new innovative products.
Application scenario: Residential Rooftops
——Flexible matching & efficient capacity expansion
For the residential market, the Hi-MO 4m 60C module (area of 1.82 m2, weight of 19.5kg, width of 1.04m) is most suitable in terms of convenient installation due to its moderate size and weight.
In some countries and regions, modules of larger size and weight can also be installed on residential roofs. LONGi therefore also provides 66C (22.0kg) and 72C (23.5kg) options. The width of the module is standardized, while three different length options allow the Hi-MO 4m series to maximize the photovoltaic system's installation capacity in residential rooftops.
Application scenario: Industrial and Commercial roofs
——Safe and reliable product for robust gains
The Hi-MO
4m 72C type module is suitable for use on industrial and commercial roofs.
Hi-MO 4m series modules
——Quality and value in the distributed generation market
Distributed
generation products can be considered key in enabling PV to enter thousands of
households and the high value of the Hi-MO 4m series modules will offer global
DG users new choices and flexibility, matched with high quality and value.
LONGi modules
are known for their excellent energy yield performance and product quality, aspects
which have been validated by the global market and authoritative third-party
institutions:
● In PV
Magazine tests, the outdoor energy yield of LONGi’s monofacial and bifacial
modules was significantly higher than that of similar products;
● In outdoor
energy yield simulations under TÜV Rheinland’s "All Quality Matters" evaluation,
LONGi has won awards in numerous consecutive years, securing the award in 2020
for both monofacial and bifacial module groups.
● In
the 2019 Renewable Energy Test Center (RETC) PV Module Index report, LONGi was
one of only two high achiever companies, by virtue of the reliability,
performance and quality of its products. In 2020, LONGi became the only manufacturer
to achieve excellence scores in all eight test indicators.
In
order to serve its global distributed generation customers more efficiently,
LONGi will expand the capacity of its dedicated DG production line to 10GW in
2021.
