SHANGHAI, Jan.
17, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- JinkoSolar Holding Co., Ltd. (the
"Company," or "JinkoSolar") (NYSE: JKS), one of the largest and
most innovative solar module manufacturers in the world, today
announced that the maximum conversion efficiency of its bifacial
solar modules reached 22.49%, breaking the previous world record
and setting a new industry standard for efficiency of mass produced
solar cells. These results were verified during testing conducted
by TÜV Rheinland, an independent provider of technical services for
testing, inspection, certification, consultation and training.
JinkoSolar was able to significantly improve efficiency for its
mass produced modules by applying newly developed ARC and advanced
metallization technologies and proven proprietary technologies to
high-efficient cell design. New Tiling Ribbon (TR) technology was
also incorporated into the cell design which eliminates any
inter-cell gap, ensuring high-efficiency and high-reliability,
while significantly improving the module's appearance. The
high-efficiency modules also help reduce the levelized cost of
electricity (LCOE) as the industry approaches grid parity
globally.
Dr. Jin Hao, Vice President of
JinkoSolar commented, "We are committed to providing high-quality
modules that will efficiently and reliably operate under the
toughest conditions. This new world record will pave the way for a
new round of technological and industry upgrades in module
efficiency with JinkoSolar leading the way. Going forward, we will
accelerate the application of the latest and most advanced
technologies to the mass production of our solar products which
will drive an increase in cost-effectiveness and promote grid
parity on a global scale."
