-Uses Larger Rectangular Silicon Wafers for Maximum Module
Flexibility-
BEIJING, May 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- JA Solar today
released its new n-type module DeepBlue 4.0 Pro at SNEC 2023. Based
on a new size of next-generation rectangular silicon wafer, the
module is capturing the attention of the industry.
The module adapts cells cut from the next generation n-type
rectangular silicon wafer size independently developed by JA Solar
that features long lifespan and low oxygen content. Combined with
high-efficiency n-type passivation contact Bycium+ cell technology,
the Open Circuit Voltage (Voc) of the cell reaches 725mV and the
cell efficiency of mass production reaches 25.3%. As well, DeepBlue
4.0 Pro integrates SMBB technology, high-density encapsulation
technology, and other technologies improving quality and
efficiency, enabling the power of the 72-cell module to reach 630W
with module efficiency exceeding 22.5%. Compared to the mainstream
182 series 78-cell modules (2465mm x 1134mm) in the industry, our
power is better while reducing the working voltage of the new
dimension by 7.6%, which decreases BOS cost for the system and hot
spot risk for the modules.
The highlight of DeepBlue 4.0 Pro is its 182mm x 199mm silicon
wafers, which enables application under multiple scenario.
Different from other rectangular silicon wafer sizes, the 182mm x
199mm rectangular silicon wafer can keep width of 1134mm while
satisfying four mainstream length of modules: 1762mm, 2333mm,
2384mm and 2465mm through different cutting methods. DeepBlue 4.0
Pro meets the demands of different application scenarios, such as
residential rooftop, commercial and industrial rooftop system and
utility power plants.
Similar to earlier DeepBlue 4.0 X, DeepBlue 4.0 Pro has
excellent power generation capacity and reliable performance. Based
on Bycium+ cell technology, DeepBlue 4.0 Pro has outstanding power
generation characteristics, such as lower degradation, better
temperature coefficient, higher bifacial generation gain, and
better lower irradiance performance. Compared to conventional
p-type modules, one-year field test results from JA Solar and TÜV
NORD showed that the n-type module with Bycium+ cell has a
electricity generation gain about 3.9%, completely proving its
power generation capacity. Furthermore, DeepBlue 4.0 Pro has passed
various rigorous aging tests and all results meet the testing
requirements of IEC standards.
The industry already comprehensively approved the power
generation performance, safety performance, and reliability in
various application scenarios of DeepBlue 4.0 Pro. At the time of
launch, this module had earned these critical certifications: the
TÜV SÜD certificate from TÜV SÜD, the Salt mist corrosion
certificate, Ammonia corrosion certificate and Dust and sand
certificate from TÜV NORD, and Golden Sun Certificate for
Photovoltaic Products, Photovoltaic Non-uniform Snow Load
Reliability Certification and Photovoltaic Flexible Racking System
Compatibility Certificate from CGC.
JA Solar's product design philosophy is "tailored to increase
customer value", and the better BOS cost and LCOE of DeepBlue 4.0
Pro deliver on this promise. Integrating advantages such as high
efficiency, high power, better power generation capacity and high
reliability, DeepBlue 4.0 Pro can generate greater profits for
customers. When compared to p-type modules in different application
scenarios, project types and installation methods, the BOS cost of
DeepBlue 4.0 Pro can be reduced by about 2%-4.5%, and the LCOE can
be reduced by about 2.5%-6%. Compared to the original version of
the n-type module, the BOS cost of DeepBlue 4.0 Pro can be reduced
by about 1.4%-2.8%, and the LCOE can be reduced by about
0.7%-1.6%.
