Thin film solar module provides 97Wp in an area of 0.72m²
A thin film solar module which provides 97Wp in an area of 0.72m², enabling an efficiency of 14.3%, has been developed by Calyxo. At temperatures above 25°C, the CX4 module produces up to 10% more energy than comparable C-Si solar modules. Mass production of the modules will commence in 2015.
"It's a great achievement to concurrently both ramp-up a production line and use it to meet the targeted performance goals for product development. We believe that we can achieve over 14% efficiency with the product generation. We are convinced that the unique Calyxo deposition process, in addition to its cost advantages, has the potential for the highest semiconductor layer qualities," Dr.-Ing. Michael Bauer, Chief Technology Officer/Chief Operating Officer.
"The pressure for us to supply higher power classes is clearly evident in the market by competitive crystalline silicon module supplier offerings. In the intermediate term, Calyxo’s next-gen modules will produce more energy per installed area compared to the crystalline competition due to the better temperature coefficient. We also work on other product characteristics, which will reduce the cost of installation on customer side," Dr. Florian Holzapfel, Chief Executive Officer.
