Dasun recently has signed a strategic cooperation framework agreement with Letong Chemical and DFSX Capital to jointly establish a research institute in Anji, focusing on R&D of PVK/HJT tandem battery technology and cooperation in the field of new energy.
According to the agreement, the three parties will, based on the principle of "equality, mutual benefit and win-win", bring into play their respective experience and resources in capital, projects, products, technologies, platforms and operation management, and they will conduct comprehensive cooperation in the fields of PVK/HJT tandem technology R&D, large-scale and distributed PV project development, PV project acquisition, PV project O&M cooperation, energy equipment manufacturing, demonstration PV project cooperation and financial investment platform.
At present, the existing crystalline silicon PV cells have achieved large-scale applications, but their conversion efficiency is approaching the ultimate efficiency. The development of new PV technology with higher efficiency, breaking the efficiency limit of traditional crystalline silicon cells, and further reducing the cost of PV power generation has increasingly become the focus of attention. PVK crystalline silicon tandem conversion efficiency limit is higher, the efficiency improvement is faster, and the improvement is obvious compared with crystalline silicon technology, and it is the most potential route among many PV routes at present.
In order to promote the further development and application of tandem technology, the three parties will cooperate in PVK/HJT tandem technology R&D, and plan to jointly set up a company and a joint laboratory in Hangzhou to engage in PVK tandem cell R&D; And to jointly establish a research institute to engage in PVK silicon tandem cell pilot work.
Letong Chemical is a high-tech enterprise focusing on the development, production and sales of various kinds of high-grade printing ink, powder coating and plastic coating products. DFSX Capital is a joint venture private equity investment institution, mainly engaged in new energy and equipment manufacturing industry investment, management of two equity investment funds. Dasun is a new energy company focusing on the development and production of HJT products, and has its own-patented technology in PVK and PVK/HJT tandem technology.
"Dasun has always adhered to innovation-driven development and continuously upgraded technology to enable the PV industry to reduce costs and increase efficiency," stressed Zhou Yejun, CEO of Dasun, "the strategic cooperation is the result of the joint efforts of all parties, and also conforms to the trend of industrial development. We look forward to the sincere cooperation of all parties, giving full play to their own advantages, setting a good example of innovative cooperation in the new energy industry, and promoting the low-carbon energy transition."
