The alliance calls for module manufacturers adhere to existing agreed industry dimensions of 2,384 mm by 1,303 mm. A hole distance of 790 mm has been added to the standard. This builds on the T/CPIA 0003-2022 Technical Specification issued by the China Photovoltaic Industry Association.
After a long period of standardisation on the M2 cell format of 156.75mm, manufacturers cannot agree on a standard size going forward, with each proposing a slightly different format, and of course this means that the finished solar PV modules that the cells are assembled into also differ in size.
The total market coverage of n-type solar cells in 2016 was 92% by c-Si and 8% by thin-films [47, 48], as shown in figure 1 (a). Of the 92% of c-Si solar cell coverage, mc-Si covered 68% of the total solar cell market and 32% was covered by mono-crystalline Si, as shown in figure 1 (b).
In recent years, the power output of solar modules has jumped from 500 W to 700 W, and the size of modules have increased along with the wattage. In 2021, for example, Risen Energy released the 132-cell NewT@N panel based on 210 mm n-type monocrystalline multi busbars cells with a half-cut design.
The group – which also includes Astronergy, Canadian Solar, Risen Energy, TCL Zhonghuan and Tongwei – plans to standardize the design of solar modules above 700 W in size. The alliance calls for module manufacturers adhere to existing agreed industry dimensions of 2,384 mm by 1,303 mm. A hole distance of 790 mm has been added to the standard.
The p-type mc-Si covered 20%, n-type mono-crystalline covered 12%, p-type mc-Si covered 23%, and p-type mono-like Si covered 3% of the total solar cell market. The increase in n-type Si solar cells was from 0% in the year 2000 to 12% in the year 2016.
