Goldi Solar, India’s most quality-conscious solar brand, at the 16th edition of Asia’s largest Renewable Energy India (REI) Expo 2023, launched its latest G12 TOPCon technologically advanced solar panel under the HELOC® (High-Efficiency Low on Carbon) Plus series. The unveiling ceremony was graced by the presence of Shri Bhuwan Chandra Joshi, Former Director (Security) Of Parliament Security Service, and Smt. Hema Bhuwan Joshi, RashtriyaAdhyaksh Mahila Morcha.
TOPCon, formally known as Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact, technology is a game-changer in solar energy. It pairs tunnel oxide passivation with PERC solar cells to reduce recombination losses and increase efficiency. With efficiency rates surpassing traditional solar panels, TOPCon offers a cost-effective solution for harnessing more energy. Its seamless integration into manufacturing processes and efficiency gains make it an ideal choice for the future of renewable energy.
The latest addition to the HELOC® Plus series comes with a 132-cell Module, N-Type TOPCon Technology, achieving an output upto 705 Wp. These panels redefine solar efficiency with an excellent module conversion efficiency of up to 22.70%. They deliver exceptional cost-effectiveness, reducing LCOE and BOS costs while ensuring faster payback. Notably, these panels offer more than a 10–30% additional power gain compared to regular modules, even excelling in weak illumination conditions like cloudy or foggy days. Their versatility makes them suitable for various applications, from BIPV to vertical installations and even challenging environments like snowfields and high-humidity areas.
While unveiling the new product, Capt Ishver Dholakiya, Managing Director and Founder, said,
“We are thrilled to announce the launch of our state-of-the-art HELOC® Plus series, featuring the innovative TOPCon technology. The world’s increasing dependence on renewable energy sources presents many opportunities for Indian manufacturers to excel in delivering cutting-edge products. At Goldi Solar, our commitment lies in narrowing the technological gap between Indian and Western markets, ensuring our local customers have access to the latest advancements.”
