New cell tech from Schott Solar in 2012
The company will expand its portfolio to include a new high performance solar module that combines impressive performance with attractive appearance.It is based on a unique new cell technology that enables record level performances - the world’s first six inch solar cells with 20.2 percent efficiency. The module with performance classes of up to 280 kW peak is scheduled to hit the market in Europe during the second quarter of 2012.This module is of particular interest to the Italian market due to the fact that it will meet the requirements that apply to the higher feed-in tariff there.Further more, its high resistance to weathering when exposed to wind, storms, ice and snow (tested for pressure and suction loads of 5,400 Pascal based on the IEC standard) clearly translates into reliable performance on top of the roof for many years to come.
