SHANGHAI, May 9, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- JinkoSolar Holding
Co., Ltd. (NYSE: JKS) (the "Company," or "JinkoSolar"), a global
leader in the solar photovoltaic industry, today announced that its
P-type monocrystalline cell broke the world record again with
efficiency hitting 23.95% during certification testing done by the
Photovoltaic and Wind Power Systems Quality Test Center at the
Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS).
P-type mono wafer technology is a contributor, with the highly
doped and low defect wafers providing excellent bulk quality. The
continued gain in efficiency is a result of the further
optimization of selective emitter (SE) formation, silicon oxide
passivation and the rear side passivation. JinkoSolar's unique
light-capturing technology uses black silicon and the multi-layer
ARC technology reduces the front side reflectivity of cells to be
lower than 0.5%, which ensures the growth of the short-circuit
current. Meanwhile, an advanced grid design and a new type of
screen-printing paste are used to reduce the series resistance and
the metal / silicon interface compound probability as a result of
promotion of solar cell fill factor.
Mr. Kangping Chen, CEO of
JinkoSolar, commented, "This recent technical breakthrough is a
combination of several our latest technologies. In particular, the
introduction of novel passivation and selective contact technology
have successfully broken the technical bottleneck created by
traditional PERC technology and represents a significant step
forward for our P type solar cells with their previous efficiency
record of 23.45% in 2017. We will continue to allocate resources
towards innovating new and high efficiency solar technologies and
their application to the market as we continue to provide the most
reliable and highest efficiency products."
