BAODING, China, April 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Yingli Green
Energy Holding Company Limited (NYSE:YGE) ("Yingli Solar" or "Yingli"), one of the world's
leading solar panel manufacturers, today announced that it was
awarded "TUV Rheinland Star for
2015 PV Module Energy Yield" and its PV module was entitled
"Five-star PV Module" at the TUV
Rheinland Solar Congress 2016.
TUV Rheinland conducted a
one-year outside energy yield test for module samples from 15
leading PV module manufacturers around the world by simulating the
operation of PV modules in solar power plants. The test showed that
Yingli's PV modules scored high in accumulated energy yield per
watt peak during the testing period. Therefore, Yingli was awarded
"TUV Rheinland Star for 2015 PV
Module Energy Yield" and its PV module was entitled "Five-star PV
Module" by TUV Rheinland, which
independently demonstrates the outstanding performance of Yingli PV
modules in terms of energy yield. Noted for rigorous and reliable
testing certification, TUV
Rheinland, a leading provider of technical services worldwide with
a history of over 140 years, was the first to start
laboratory-scale technical testing of solar components decades ago
and houses the largest worldwide PV testing network.
"These honors awarded by TUV
Rheinland highlight the outstanding energy yield performance of our
PV modules under real outside operating conditions and our test
result provides a benchmark for PV module energy yield in the
industry. Meanwhile, our high, independently proven, PV module
energy yield also delivers higher yield forecast confidence for
larger solar power plants, increasing investment returns and
supporting Yingli to achieve our mission 'to provide affordable
green energy for all'," said Dr. Dengyuan Song, CTO of Yingli,
"Yingli will continue to dedicate itself to developing high
performance differentiated products, strengthening innovation and
product quality, and making leading contributions to the PV
industry."
