Risen Energy Co., Ltd, a leading, Tier 1 manufacturer of high-performance solar 
photovoltaic products, today announced the release of its superior PV module 
with high strength alloy steel frame. 

In response to ongoing demand for carbon footprint reduction, from both 
customers and governments alike, Risen Energy has developed an alternate 
framing system to mitigate the inherent carbon footprint of aluminium. By using 
a mission optimised, coated alloyed steel, complete with a significant 
reduction in energy consumption during such steel production, Risen Energy has 
delivered a formidable result for both resilience and durability within this 
matchless product.

China's State Council recently released the Working Guidance for Carbon Dioxide 
Peaking and Carbon Neutrality in Full and Faithful Implementation of the New 
Development Philosophy. The guidance states that China plans to increase the 
share of non-fossil fuels in the primary energy consumption mix to 
approximately 25 per cent by 2030, by which time its total installed capacity 
of wind and solar power is expected to exceed 1200GW in addition to reaffirming 
the goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality.

At COP26, 136 countries made net-zero pledges; 90% of the global economy is 
covered by net-zero commitments. Now, with more than 35 world leaders signing 
up to the Breakthrough Agenda, governments across the world will help 
dramatically scale and speed up the race to zero emissions and deliver the 
promise of the Paris Agreement.

The carbon neutrality mandate puts the onus on the photovoltaic sector to shift 
to raw materials with lower carbon emission and less energy consumption. Steel 
processing far outperforms the electrolytic aluminium equivalent in terms of 
carbon emission and energy consumption reduction; 13,500kWh of thermal power is 
required to produce one tonne of aluminium, equivalent to 11.2 tonnes of carbon 
dioxide (CO2) whilst similarly, 4,500kWh of power and corresponding 1.8 tonnes 
CO2 is needed to produce one tonne of steel. 

"Whatever your belief" expounded Mr. Sun, president of Risen Energy Co., Ltd. 
"environmental pollution and carbon dioxide emissions affect us all. It is 
simply not good enough for us to proclaim that we are making an impact of 
reduction of these elements by providing and using solar PV modules, we must do 
more. Moving to this uniquely constructed module is a step in the right 
direction." 

Simply swapping out aluminium for steel of any type is not a simple exercise. 
Corrosion resistance, strength and cosmetic issues all need to be considered 
and evaluated. The high strength alloy steel frame looks, for all practical 
purposes, the same as the one made of aluminium, yet it out performs in 
strength, corrosion and weather resistance because of the use of 
corrosion-resistant zinc-aluminium-magnesium coating as well as Risen Energy's 
unique surface treatment technology. After more than a year of efforts in 
reliability testing and design optimization, Risen Energy's fully upgraded 
Titan series of modules has received IEC certification from the independent 
testing and certification organization TÜV SÜD, demonstrating that the upgraded 
series fully meets the needs of various application scenarios of PV power 
generating systems. 

The application of the high strength alloy steel frame is a major step in Risen 
Energy's ongoing efforts to facilitate industry-grade optimization and 
transformation in response to industry trends and the country's goal of 
achieving carbon neutrality. For customers and end users alike, the performance 
of the company's exclusive patented high strength alloy steel frame stands out 
from the rest.  

Long Life, High Strength, Low Carbon Emission.
