This result sets a world record for large-size contact-passivated solar cells and was independently confirmed by the Institute for Solar Energy Research in Hamelin (ISFH), Germany. JinkoSolar’s R&D teams of experts in silicon wafers, solar cells and solar modules have made significant breakthroughs in the field of high efficiency and high power of cells and modules for many years. The record-breaking mono-crystalline silicon solar cell was fabricated on a high quality CZ mono-Si substrate, with a practical size of 267.72 square centimetres, and several advanced technologies have been implemented to achieve this new record of 24.79 per cent, including passivating contact technologies, advanced diffusion system, surface passivation and advanced anti-reflection technologies, and a series of material upgrade were integrated into the cell process. The record-breaking monocrystalline silicon solar cell will be gradually applied to product production.
