Advanced firing process: Improves contact resistance and reduces carrier recombination in the contact area, increasing open-circuit voltage by 10 mV. Rear polysilicon optimization: Minimizes parasitic absorption and reduces current loss, achieving bifaciality of up to 90%. Next-gen passivation: Reduces emitter recombination losses by up to 20%, increasing cell efficiency by 0.1% (absolute) via open-circuit voltage optimization. Ultra-precise SMBB design: Minimizes electrical resistance and associated power losses. Canadian Solar's new N-type high power module enhances project economics, offering up to 90% bifaciality, an optimized temperature coefficient (-0.28%/°C) which enables up to 2% lower balance of system costs, and up to 5% reduction in LCOE compared to today's standard TOPCon PV modules. Thomas Koerner, Corporate Senior Vice President of Canadian Solar, remarked, "We are pleased to announce our new N-type high power module.The CS6.2 module-series represents a significant leap forward in solar technology, delivering highest module efficiency, significantly lower LCOE, and greater sustainability for utility and commercial and industrial PV projects.With this launch, we reaffirm our commitment to innovation and customer centric developments as a leader of the global energy transition." The TOPCon 2.0 module series will be showcased at Intersolar Europe from May 7 to 9, in Munich, Germany.
