正泰公司的非晶硅/微晶硅串聯高效薄膜光伏組件近日分別通過TÜV認證和UL認證,這就意味著,該公司的組件達到了德國和美國的標準要求。
認證內容包括濕熱環境,機械負重,環境濕度,濕度凍結和循環加熱等測試。另外,該組件的效率實驗也獲得成功,面板的穩定轉換效率水平超過了9%,實際生產的平均轉換率達到9.2%。
正泰集團首席執行官楊立友表示,此次通過雙認證有助于公司打開歐美市場,這種組件能量回收期短,跟傳統組件相比也更加環保,公司期望借助去年在中國大陸建立的第一條高效串聯結薄膜生產線到2011年產能達到300兆瓦。
Astronergy’s a-Si/μc-Si tandem-junction high-efficiency thin-film PV modules have been awarded both TÜV and UL certification for the IEC 61646 and IEC 61730 standards. The dual certification means that the company’s modules are guaranteed for these standards in both Germany and the U.S.
All certification tests based on IEC 61646 and IEC 61730 standards were conducted on the modules, including damp-heat, mechanical load, humidity-freeze and thermal cycling. Efficiency tests were also successful; the panels exceeded the 9% stabilized conversion efficiency level, reaching an average of 9.2% in production.
“TUV and UL certifications on our thin film modules will help us accelerate the development of thin film markets in Europe and in the US,” Astronergy CEO Dr. Liyou Yang explained, “A-Si/μc-Si tandem-junction high-efficiency thin film has a significantly shorter energy payback time and its manufacturing process is more environmentally friendly compared to traditional wafer based PV.”
The company is looking to expand its thin-film capacity to 300MW by 2011, after completing its first high-efficiency tandem-junction thin-film production line in mainland China last year.
