SHJ Solar Modules Break Efficiency Records with 25.44% Certified Performance
Researchers have developed silicon heterojunction solar modules that achieved certified 25.44% efficiency at Fraunhofer ISE. The breakthrough represents significant progress toward the theoretical 29.4% efficiency limit for silicon solar cells while demonstrating exceptional 98.6% cell-to-module performance ratios that challenge competing technologies.
Record-Breaking Solar Performance
Solar technology has taken another significant leap forward with reports of silicon heterojunction (SHJ) modules achieving certified 25.44% efficiency at Fraunhofer ISE. According to the analysis published in Nature Communications, this performance surpasses the previous large-area module record of 24.9% set by Maxeon earlier this year and edges past LONGi’s 25.4% benchmark from July 2024.
