Chinese solar giant LONGi said in a statement that, as of mid-December, global shipments of its Hi-MO 5 module have exceeded 50GW.
The Hi-MO 5 module, based on 182mm cells, was launched in June 2020. It is adaptable to an extensive range of application scenarios, being easy to handle, transfer, store and install, with a very low breakage rate, said LONGi.
Based on gallium-doped, half-cell, crackless smart soldering technology, Hi-MO 5 modules have received wide industry recognition, including awards from Intersolar and TÜV Rheinland for Energy Yield Simulation at its ‘All Quality Matters’ congress, while end-user consumers have endorsed the product for exceeding expectations in terms of power generation performance.
According to industry sources, the market share for 182 modules has seen a rapid increase during 2022, moving from 27% in 2021 to a current high of 70%.
Moving forward, LONGi will add more products to its Hi-MO range and will continue to deliver green energy on a global scale as part of the transformation and upgrading of energy structures.
