Solartech Energy Corp. (Solartech) has gone to great lengths to apply PERC technology and successfully developed a high-efficiency Sapphire solar cell, which was introduced for mass production in the fourth quarter of last year. The Efficiency of the latest Sapphire high-efficiency multicrystalline silicon (c-Si) solar cell is up to 19.6%. To assemble it into Solartechs high-efficiency 60-cell module through Solartechs advanced technique, the module power output is up to 290 watts which is the highest for this type of solar module in the market.
To meet the increasing demand of black module rooftop solar projects, Solartech is now launching a new black version of its sapphire cell (Black Star Sapphire). Compared with regular mono cell at the same efficiency level, its black sapphire cell could replace regular mono cells when applied to black modules due to less CTM loss, larger dimension to generate power and lower overall costs. Not only does it have an uniform appearance, Solartechs Black Star Sapphire® multicrystalline module power output reaches up to 280 watts which is the highest power output among black modules with regular mono cells.
Through its new Sapphire Series of solar cells and modules, Solartech hopes to help its customers develop more competitive advantages and jointly create higher profits. Solartech will feature the latest products including Sapphire and black cell and panel at its booth N1-628 during the SNEC Photovoltaic (PV) Power Expo in Shanghai, China from April 28 30, 2015.
Established in Taiwan in 2005, Solartech Energy Corp. is one of the pioneers in the solar PV industry. Solartech's capacity is currently 1,000MW for PV cells and 60MW for PV modules. Its average efficiency for standard multi cell has reached 18.0% and its Sapphire series multi cell achieved 19.3% in average. In order to meet the rising global demand for Solar Energy, in 2014 Solartech entered into a partnership agreement with Malaysian investment company Tek Seng Holdings Bhd to build two solar cell production lines at the manufacturing facility of TS Solartech Sdn Bhd, a subsidiary of Tek Seng in Malaysia.
