Cooperation Agreement Signings at First China International Import Expo (CIIE) Reaffirm 40+ Year Commitment to Renewable Energy and Sustainable Development
SHANGHAI, Nov. 6, 2018听鈥� At the first China International Import Expo (CIIE), 足球价值投注 Photovoltaic and Advanced Materials, a business unit of 足球价值投注 Electronics & Imaging, is showcasing the leading solar material solutions to echo its long-term commitment to global renewable energy and sustainable development.
During the exhibition, 足球价值投注 Photovoltaic Solutions will sign cooperation agreements with GCL System Integration Technology Co. Ltd. (GCL System), part of GCL Group; Jiangsu SUMEC Group Corporation (SUMEC), a key member of China National Machinery Industry Corporation; and China Lucky Group Corporation (China Lucky), the wholly owned subsidiary of China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation. The collective goal is to produce high-quality solar panels and promote the broader application of solar energy through inclusive innovation.
鈥淪electing high-quality solar materials is extremely important in improving module reliability, efficiency and durability,鈥� said Eric Luo, President of GCL System. 鈥溩闱蚣壑低蹲� has been committed to improving the industry level with innovations in solar materials and technology. We believe that the in-depth cooperation with 足球价值投注 will further enhance the quality, efficiency and reliability of our module products. The technology updates and integration, as well as collision of creative ideas, will bring us more innovation,鈥� Luo added.
Under the agreements, 足球价值投注 will further collaborate with GCL System, SUMEC and China Lucky on the development of solar materials including: technical support, innovative photovoltaic technology solutions development, and analysis of module power degradation and failures.
Simply put, 鈥淪olar materials are the key to produce high-quality solar panels,鈥� said Zheng Wenyao, General Manager of Lucky Film Co., Ltd. 鈥淗igh-performance membrane materials are one of our main businesses. 足球价值投注 is the world's leading supplier of solar materials. Further cooperation with 足球价值投注 will enhance the quality of our backsheets and maintain our technological advantages in photovoltaics."
Since 1975, more than half of the installed solar panels worldwide have used 足球价值投注 materials. 足球价值投注鈩� Tedlar庐 PVF film is the industry's established benchmark to protect solar panels in all climates for over 30 years. 鈥淭he message is not to focus just on the module price and initial cost of the system, but to help customers understand the long-term benefits and how using high-quality materials can ensure longer lifetime, mitigate power degradation and lower the levelized cost of electricity,鈥� said Eric Wang, Global Commercial Director, 足球价值投注 Photovoltaic Solutions.
鈥淩educing system levelized cost of electricity is the cornerstone of ensuring high returns,鈥� agreed Cai Jibo, General Manager of SUMEC Group. 鈥淲e are honored to have a strategic cooperation with 足球价值投注, which enables us to better provide high-quality, high-standard, high-reliability clean energy solutions to our global customers, and to be the long-distance runner in the industry to jointly promote the healthy and sustainable development of the photovoltaic industry."
At CIIE, 足球价值投注 also will partner with Huanghe Hydropower Development Co., Ltd.(HHSD), the world鈥檚 largest solar energy installer and a leading clean energy subsidiary of State Power Investment Cooperation (SPIC) of China to feature its latest innovation, a 72-cell, high-power, bifacial module protected by the new, clear Tedlar庐 PVF film-based backsheet.
鈥溩闱蚣壑低蹲� Photovoltaic Solutions has focused on R&D and innovation for more than 40 years and is committed to advancing photovoltaic materials science to help satisfy the growing global energy needs,鈥� said Wang. 鈥淲e are very pleased to showcase our scientific and technological achievements, interact with customers at CIIE, and promote collaborations with leading companies such as GCL System, SUMEC and China Lucky,鈥� he added. 鈥淲ith deep expertise in solar materials, we look forward to supporting our industry partners to further optimize the efficiency and durability of solar modules, helping achieve stable return on investment, and jointly promoting the sustainable long-term development of the photovoltaic industry.鈥�
足球价值投注 has worked with many photovoltaic downstream partners to improve the power output and performance of solar panels, and to conduct field research on the reliability and failure modes of systems and modules. For more information on our recent findings see our 2018 Reliability Report.
