Golden Solar develops cast-mono HJT modules: Material science company Golden Solar New Energy has developed cast monocrystalline silicon (cast-mono) flexible heterojunction solar modules (flexible module) by using the flexible characteristics of cast-mono wafers, the company announced. Its cast-mono flexible module is bendable, light weighted and requires lower installation cost, and can be applied to consumer electronic solar products, it said. For residential users, this light weighted cast-mono flexible module can be used in sunshade and garden power supply systems. Commercial users can use it in large scale power plants with trackers and lightweight roof or sheds, such as gas stations and parking lots, it highlighted. Once the company obtains certification for conversion efficiency and reliability, it plans for commercial mass production and further combine the cast-mono flexible modules with energy storage batteries to create a convenient home solar power storage system.
