LONGi’s Hi-MO 9 module, powered by its advanced HPBC2.0 technology, has recently been awarded the Product Carbon Footprint Label Certification by the China General Certification Center (CGC). This achievement not only fills a gap in the implementation of such standards(SJ/T 11926-2024)within China but also sets a benchmark for the photovoltaic industry in terms of data localization.
Moreover, it provides a credible, localized model for carbon footprint assessment in China’s PV sector. Designed specifically for utility-scale applications, the Hi-MO 9 module boasts up to 24.8% conversion efficiency and a maximum power output of 670W. This certification highlights several key breakthroughs:
- Full Life-Cycle Coverage : The assessment covers the entire 25-year product life cycle.
- Innovative Use of Localized Database: For the first time, a localized electricity emission factor that accurately reflects China’s energy structure was applied, significantly enhancing evaluation accuracy.
- Deep Decarbonization at Source: By integrating green electricity into production and adopting low-carbon Bill of Materials (BOM) solutions—such as selecting low-energy-consumption raw materials and optimizing supply chain carbon pathways—the product’s carbon footprint has been substantially reduced.
This milestone not only demonstrates LONGi’s strong capabilities in green manufacturing and low-carbon technology but also establishes a replicable pathway for carbon footprint management based on local standards. It will further accelerate the low-carbon transformation of China’s photovoltaic industry.
