Proven Results from Multiple Locations: AIKO ABC Modules Lead in Power Output
July 24th, 2024
In 2021, Aiko introduced its first ABC (All-Black Contact) cell with no front grid lines, marking the dawn of a new era in monocrystalline silicon technology.
By 2023, AIKO Zhuhai had launched a 10GW ABC cell and module production line, heralding the industry’s true entry into large-scale manufacturing of n-type BC technology.
The ABC module is naturally designed for high efficiency, boasting 6%-10% more power output compared to TOPCon for the same area. With superior partial shading optimization, better temperature coefficients, and lower degradation rates, ABC’s cutting-edge technology ensures higher energy yield per watt.
Aiko is dedicated to maximizing the value of every ray of sunlight and every square meter of installation space. With more products being applied in various scenarios globally, AIKO ABC modules consistently demonstrate superior power output performance, painting a vivid picture of their exceptional capabilities.
Real-World Case Studies
Yinchuan, Ningxia
- • Location: Longitude 106°16′ E, Latitude 38°27′ N
- • Setup: 12 AIKO ABC bifacial double-glass modules (630W each) and 14 TOPCon modules (590W each) installed on the roof of the Ningxia Electric Power Design Institute Co.,Ltd. Both types of modules were fixed at the same angle and partially shaded at certain times of the day.
- • Performance: Over an 84-day period, the AIKO ABC modules consistently outperformed, generating 9.55% more electricity per kilowatt than the TOPCon modules.
Zhanjiang, Guangdong
- • Location: Longitude 109°40′ E, Latitude 21°14′ N
- • Climate: Tropical monsoon climate
- • Setup: Comparing ABC double-glass 635W modules with TOPCon double-glass 570W modules under full sun and shaded conditions.
- • Performance: Under full sun, ABC modules achieved a 1,95% higher power generation per kilowatt over the testing period.
- • Additionally, in another real-world test where tree shading was present, the ABC modules demonstrated a remarkable 12.04% increase in power generation per kilowatt compared to the TOPCon modules.
Zhuhai, Guangdong
- • Location: Longitude 113°34′ E, Latitude 22°16′ N
- • Climate: Tropical marine monsoon climate
- • Setup: Two tests were conducted
- • Test 1: Comparing ABC mono-glass 600W modules and TOPCon mono-glass 580W modules installed at a 3° tilt with accumulation of dust on the short edges.
- • Performance 1: ABC modules generated 4,94% more electricity per kilowatt.
- • Test 2: Comparing actual power generation under dynamic shading simulating chimney shadows.
- • Performance 2: ABC modules showed a staggering 50,72% increase in power generation per kilowatt compared to TOPCon modules.
Japan
- • Setup: Testing ABC 54-cell modules against TOPCon modules over a 72-day period in an unshaded installation environment.
- • Performance: ABC modules achieved a 2,6% higher power generation per kilowatt.
