The 60-cell multi-Si modules are enclosed using 2.5-mm thick high strength tempered glass on both sides with a frameless design.
According to JA Solar, the new cells have glass cover in the front and backside, making it more reliable than regular PV modules that have front side glass covering.
The cells are weatherproof and can withstand extreme environments including high-temperature, high-humidity, windy, salty, or arid conditions.
JA Solar said that the cell can provide 30-year performance warranty with power degradation up to a maximum of 2.5% in its first year, followed by a linear annual degradation rate of 0.5%.
