LONGi’s Hi-MO
5 series module has received a “Simplified Carbon Assessment” certification
from Certisolis, the official certifier only on ECS for LONGi. Complying with
French carbon footprint standards, LONGi’s entry into the French solar market is
already well underway.
This new certification adds to the current CFP certification for the Hi-MO 4 series products, and allows customers in France to apply for subsidized electricity tariffs under the CRE4 framework for projects using LONGi’s high efficiency modules.
As the agency
in France to issue ECS certification, Certisolis ensures the safety of projects
submitted to tender through rigorous inspection of modules, their sources and relevant
performance calculations.
The
excellent performance of the Hi-MO 5 series module has been recognized by
certifications from numerous worldwide authorities. Offering
up to 540Wp performance with gallium-doped, M10 (182mm x 182mm) wafers,
half-cut monocrystalline cells and 9BB (busbar) “Smart Soldering” cell
interconnect technology, the
module provides higher power, long-term reliability and an efficiency of over
21.1% to achieve sustainable development.
“We
are very excited to receive the carbon footprint certification from Certisolis,
which is a validation of LONGi’s leadership in green production,” said Dennis
She, Senior Vice President, LONGi Solar. “LONGi always advocates the concept of
using clean energy to produce clean energy products and we take sustainable
development as a core measurement for business decisions. The successful certification
of the CRE carbon footprint is affirmation of our green commitment to the whole
process of production. In the future, we will continue to improve production
management and manufacturing processes and further reduce the carbon footprint
of our products.”
LONGi is
continuously providing green energy for all industry sectors with its solar
energy technology. At the 24th United Nations Climate Conference, the company announced
the green development concept of “Solar for Solar” and became the first Chinese
solar energy company to join all three of the RE100, EV100 and EP100 global
initiatives.
With China
aiming to have reached the high point of its carbon dioxide emissions before
2030, with a view to achieving carbon neutrality by 2060, decarbonization
initiatives provide major opportunities to accelerate technology innovation and
industrial upgrades in the PV industry. The verification of the CRE carbon
footprint represents recognition of LONGi’s success in its continuous
innovation and green manufacturing in the renewable energy industry. The
company will continue to deliver against its corporate social responsibilities,
further developing its “Solar for Solar” concept of manufacturing products
using 100% clean energy in order to accelerate carbon neutrality progress.
