Successfully grid connected! DAS Solar and CHINA HUANENG GROUP collaborate on the world’s first 2000V PV project

2023-06-21

DAS Solar, in collaboration with CHINA HUANENG GROUP (hereinafter referred to as CHNG), successfully implemented the world’s first 2,000V PV project for power generation. The project is the largest N-type manufacturing project for CHNG and Shanxi Province. It is also DAS Solar's largest N-type PV plant grid-connected project in China, providing clean and green electricity to western China.

 

 

Invested and constructed by CHNG, DAS Solar provide N-type 560W dual-glass modules for the project in Yulin city, Shanxi province. The project has a DC-side installation capacity of 182 MW, comprising of 34 subarrays. The project features groundbreaking 2,000V modules, developed jointly by CHNG and DAS Solar's R&D department. To ensure the safe and reliable operation of the PV system, DAS Solar conducted rigorous insulation tests and 13,500V high-voltage withstand tests on the supplied 2,000V modules. With the adoption of a 2,000V PV system design, the installation capacity of individual modules can be increased by over 30%, resulting in significant savings in DC cable and combiner box usage. Moreover, it reduces balance of system (BOS) costs, lowers the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE), improves yield rates, and accelerates the development and application of PV systems.

 

The DC side of the project occupies the smallest area per 10,000 kW among centralized PV projects in northern China, covering 170 acres. Once the project is connected to the grid, it is expected to generate an average annual power output of approximately 298.87 million kWh over a 25-year operational period, with an annual equivalent full-load operating duration of approximately 1640 hours. This project will result in an annual reduction of approximately 278,000 tons of CO2 emissions and save about 94,100 tons of standard coal.

 

 

DAS Solar is dedicated to continuous exploration and rigorous research in N-type technology, consistently surpassing industry standards in cell and module efficiency. This commitment ensures that DAS Solar offers global customers a reliable assurance of long-term optimal value. By the end of 2023, DAS Solar will have established a production capacity of 30 GW for N-type high-efficiency cells and modules across 14 manufacturing bases.
