Lights up the desert - DAS Solar supplies for high reliability N-type modules for Awati PV Plant

2023-07-13

Aksu prefecture is making remarkable progress towards a greener and more sustainable future with the successful completion of the Awati PV Plant, powered by DAS Solar, the top-tier brand in N-type technology. Developed by Guangdong No.2 Hydropower Engineering Company, the Awati PV Plant represents a significant milestone in Aksu prefecture's renewable energy sector. The Project is located in the southwestern side of Awati County, Aksu Prefecture, Xinjiang, planned to have an installed capacity on 400MWac. The project site is divided into 128 photovoltaic arrays, with each array consisting of 308 sets of photovoltaic string, and a 3125 kW inverter-boost integrated machine. DAS Solar is provided for supplying all the modules for the project, with a total of 1,025,024 pieces of modules.

 

 

To address the demanding installation conditions of the large-scale PV plant in desert, DAS Solar supplied part of high-efficiency and high reliability N-type bifacial double glass modules. This double glass design provides heightened strength and hardness, enabling long-term resistance against the persistent erosion of wind and sand. As for degradation rates, these modules exhibit a first-year degradation rate lower than 1%. Consequently, the modules enjoy an extended operational lifespan in harsh environments, including those characterized by strong winds and sandstorms. Moreover, DAS Solar's N-type modules boast a temperature coefficient of only -0.30%/°C. This significantly mitigates power loss in high-temperature conditions, thereby enhancing the overall power generation capacity of the station. The modules also up to an impressive 80% bifaciality, resulting in heightened power generation gains in expansive, unobstructed sandy areas with high reflectivity. Consequently, the PV plant experiences substantial improvements in overall profitability.

 

Compared to traditional PERC modules of equivalent area, DAS Solar's N-type modules can achieve a maximum increase in power generation of up to 5%. These modules have superior power generation, higher bifaciality, optimized temperature coefficient, enhanced resistance against hidden cracks, and "zero" degradation characteristics.

 

The environmental impact of the Awati PV Plant in Aksu prefecture is remarkable. Once fully operational, it is projected to generate approximately 808 million kilowatt-hours of clean electricity annually. This is equivalent to saving 250,000 metric tons of standard coal, reducing carbon dioxide emissions by 630,000 metric tons, and decreasing sulfur dioxide emissions by 130 metric tons per year. This substantial output plays a pivotal role in reducing carbon emissions associated with traditional fossil fuel-based power generation, contributing significantly to Aksu prefecture's sustainability goals.
