LONGi launches N-type TOPCon bifacial modules Hi-MO N at SNEC 2021
XI'AN, China, June 4, 2021 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

The 15th International Photovoltaic Electricity Generation and Smart Energy 
Conference & Exhibition (SNEC 2021) opened on June 3rd in Shanghai, China. In 
this premier industry exhibition, LONGi unveiled its Hi-MO N - the first 
bifacial module with N-type TOPCon cells – and once again leads the PV industry 
with high-efficiency technology.

Hi-MO N maintains the optimal 182mm cell and 72c module size and adopts LONGi's 
proprietary HPC technique based on N-type TOPCon (High Performance Cell with 
Hybrid Passivated Contact). The conversion efficiency is up to 22.3% and power 
reaches 570W in mass production. Designed to deliver ultra-high value and lower 
LCOE to utility-scale PV power plants, Hi-MO N is expected to be the flagship 
product leading an industrial breakthrough in module efficiency and energy 
yield.

From its commitment to monocrystalline silicon technology to broad applications 
of monocrystalline silicon-based PERC technology spanning P-type bifacial 
technology to M6 and M10 wafer standards, each of LONGi's breakthroughs is 
based on the maximization of industry value and reduction of LCOE. LONGi's 
technologies have accelerated the PV industry. Hi-MO N, the newly unveiled 
TOPCon module is the latest masterpiece of LONGi's continuous innovation that 
offers unprecedented improved performance. 

With LONGi HPC technique based N-type TOPCon, Hi-MO N can achieve higher 
bifacial gain, better temperature coefficient and low irradiance performance, 
lower working temperature, better LID and PID performance. Energy yield is 2-3% 
higher than that of mainstream P-type bifacial modules.

In tandem with "Zero" cell damage and LONGi's proprietary smart soldering 
technology, Hi MO N is PID-free under irradiance. The initial year degradation 
is under 1% and linear degradation is under 0.4% (Degradation of similar 
mainstream products is around 2% in its initial year, and linear degradation is 
approximately 0.45% per year). Calculated on a 30-year lifecycle, the 
conversion efficiency of Hi-MO N modules will be 2.45% higher than that of 
other mainstream products in the market. 

In addition to high energy yield and low light induced degradation, Hi-MO N 
also shows its value in reducing BOS costs with its higher module efficiency. 
The 182mm-size module can minimize costs associated with racking, cable, 
inverter and labor. Its high conversion efficiency of 22.3% can enhance 
installed capacity by over 3.5% in areas of limited space and reduce BOS costs 
as well as costs of AC equipment and operations and maintenance throughout the 
life cycle of the power plants. 

The energy yield and system cost savings during Hi-MO N lifecycle deliver 
higher values for customers, when compared to mainstream P-type bifacial 
modules in the market.

With the release of Hi-MO N, LONGi's portfolio now includes the "Hi-MO N", 
"Hi-MO 5" and "Hi-MO 4" product families: Hi-MO 4 is suited in mountainous 
regions and areas where handling of modules can be difficult. Hi-MO 5 is the 
hit product for ultra-large power plants. Hi-MO N is most suited in 
applications on surfaces with high reflections, high temperature, limited land 
and high labor costs.
