The @TaiyangNews Reliable PV Module Design Conference concludes with a key takeaway—higher performance & lower costs must go hand in hand with quality. Coming up: High Efficiency Solar Technologies 2026 online conference on November 11, 20, and 25, 2026 taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Panel takeaways from @TaiyangNews’ Reliable PV Module Design Conference: Experts see reliability gains in new module technologies, but challenges remain—from TOPCon UVID and junction box design to insurability as module designs reach their limits. taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Munich Re’s factory inspection findings show that 10% of inspected PV factories did not qualify for warranty insurance, despite IEC certifications. Following reports of UVID in TOPCon cells, it has made UV60 testing & factory inspections mandatory. taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Munich Re’s Ronald Sastrawan shared an insurer’s perspective on PV module warranties at the @TaiyangNews conference. He called 30-year warranties important for the solar industry & advised buyers to ask for warranty insurance when purchasing modules. taiyangnews.info/technology/…

METLEN Energy & Metals along with Greek industrial enterprise Karatzis Group of Companies, have commissioned a 330 MW/790 MWh project calling it the largest standalone battery energy storage project in Greece & one of the largest in Europe. #Greece taiyangnews.info/storage/lar…

René Schüler discussed DMEGC Solar's iNFINITY RT 3.0 modules. It uses butyl edge sealant across the edges of laminated stack of glass-encapsulant-cell-rear encapsulant-glass to reduce creepage distance betwen cell & glass edge relative to IEC standard. taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Max Köntopp discussed results of TÜV Rheinland's extended reliability testing of TOPCon modules from 6 manufacturers. All 6 passed the tests. Biggest difference was seen in thermal cycling, mainly linked to module design, materials & manufacturing. taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Spanish energy and water utility Cox Energy plans to develop up to 400 MW of solar PV capacity & 1 GWh of battery energy storage in El Salvador as part of a $2.9 billion investment agreement with the country’s government. #ELSalvador #SolarEnergy #Storage taiyangnews.info/markets/cox…

Speaking at @TaiyangNews conference, Max Köntopp of TÜV Rheinland said IEC 61215 & IEC 61730 qualification tests do not guarantee the expected 25-35-year service life of PV modules. Manufacturers need additional testing to assess emerging reliability risks taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Ling Zhuang of @TrinaSolarUS said its new Vertex N G3 series TOPCon module incorporates quarter-cut architecture with edge sealant to reduce creepage distance, has 3-stage junction boxes & offers improved wind-load carrying capability, among other features taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Beyond electrical insulation, @JASolarOfficial also focuses on improving mechanical stability of DeepBlue 5.0. Djamel Eddine Mansour highlighted redesigned rear-glass mounting-hole layout that replaces straight-line arrangement with triangular pattern. taiyangnews.info/technology/…

Djamel Eddine Mansour of @JASolarOfficial said its high-insulation boundary sealing technology for DeepBlue 5.0 reduces insulation distance between solar cells & module edge from 10.4 mm to 3.5 mm, increasing power output & maintaining electrical safety. taiyangnews.info/technology/…
