AE Solar has launched new bifacial PV modules for vertical installations. The CMD-L144BD, part of the Terra series, are N-type Tunneloxide-Passivated Contact (Topcon) panels, with a maximum output power ranging from 560 W to 580 W. Allegedly their Power wins up to 10%.
“The new Terra module is a unique PV module that is designed to considerably increase the energy performance and sustainability for different applications, with extra benefits for Agri-PV installation,” said the German solar module manufacturer PV -Magazine. “The vertical installation ensures a simple movement of agri machines, lower costs of mounting systems and reduced dust on the panels.”
Each panel contains 144 half cells and offers module efficiency between 20.62% and 21.36%. It has a 30 mm anodized aluminum alloy frame and a 2.0 mm glass cover. The panels measure 1.19 meters wide, 2.3 meters high and 30 millimeters in thickness. They weigh 33 kg and work within a temperature range from -40 ° C to 85 C.
“The new interconnection design has moved the connection boxes and cables to the edges of the modules and the optimized framing technology has eliminated the self-shadowing of the rear solar cells,” the company said. “These techniques have increased the bifaciality of the module, which leads to a higher energy yield to 3.3% compared to the standard PV modules and a lower level of energy (LCOE).”
