Runergy, a leading solar energy company and a BNEF Tier 1 PV module manufacturer, is officially set to showcase its latest high-efficiency photovoltaics (PV) modules at Booth 63000 Hall A during RE+, North America’s premier clean energy event. Boasting a module line-up made for diverse solar system applications, the stated development brings to you a DH108N8B model, which bears an all-black appearance enhancing aesthetic appeal along with bifacial power generation that promises higher energy yields. Furthermore, it has flexible installation options ideal for rooftops with a size of 1722x1134x30 mm, maximizing space utilization while featuring exceptional degradation resistance due to advanced N-type cell technology. Beyond that, Runergy is also bringing out a DH144N8 model, which has been upgraded with a thicker frame of 35mm and stronger front glass of 3.2mm capable of withstanding hail up to 55mm diameter. Such an upgrade translates to better durability against extreme weather conditions. This becomes all the more important once you acknowledge that, according to the Washington Post, frequent massive hailstorms continue to be a massive problem for the US, raising public concerns about extreme weather events. Anyway, next in line would be the DH156N8 model. Runergy’s DH156N8 model basically conceives for you more than 645W worth of power output. By doing so, it unsurprisingly cuts down on Balance-of-System (BOS) costs for power plant construction to a significant degree.
Joining the same in Runergy’s all-new DH132N11 model, a model which is understood be well-equipped in terms of leveraging unique rectangular cells (182x210mm) for optimizing container space usage. Not just that, the stated model is also able to reduce logistics costs by a rather important margin. Rounding up highlights for us is the DH132H10 model. This model banks upon HJT technology to lower energy consumption and reduce carbon emissions. Alongside that, it also applies capabilities of latest 0BB technology so to eliminate primary busbar. The idea governing model’s latter action is rooted in toning down the silver use in cells, while simultaneously increasing stringer ribbons to enhance crack resistance.
Making the whole development even more critical is how Runergy’s products have already received certification from world-renowned renewable energy laboratories. Furthermore, the company has been honored with the Bronze Medal by EcoVadis for its outstanding performance in the field of ESG. Hold on, we still haven’t even touched upon its recognition as the Highest Achiever in 2024 PV Module Index (PVMI) report, prepared by Renewable Energy Test Center (RETC). In case that didn’t sound impressive enough, then we ought to mention that Runergy has also won the “Top Performer” award by Kiwa PV Evolution Labs (Kiwa PVEL).
All in all, the whole runner delivers a rather interesting follow-up to one Wood Mackenzie report, where it was revealed that the U.S. witnessed historic solar manufacturing growth during Q1 2024, as a record-breaking 11 GW of new capacity is now duly installed. Backing that up even further is the latest U.S. Solar Market Insight Q2 2024 report by SEIA and Wood Mackenzie that shows how the country’s total annual solar module manufacturing capacity has surpassed 26 GW, marking a significant milestone in the American solar industry’s expansion.
Coming back to Runergy’s PV module, the facility to manufacture that, situated in Alabama, is expected to commence full-scale production this year, with a planned capacity of 2GW.
