Vikram Solar has unveiled Series 10 modules, which features 144 half-cut cells based on M10 (182 mm) wafer sizes. The monofacial modules, Somera Series 10, have a maximum power conversion efficiency of 21.33 per cent and a reported peak power output of up to 550 W. Meanwhile, the bifacial modules, Prexos Series 10, have a peak power output of up to 545 W and a maximum efficiency of 21.13 per cent. The Somera and Prexos Series 10 modules are both constructed with multi-busbar, monocrystalline PERC cells. The modules are intended for use in all types of photovoltaic (PV) installations, including residential, commercial and industrial applications as well as utility-scale projects. The use of bypass diodes in series parallel split junction box connections allows the modules to operate in partial shadow situations. A greater number of busbars makes PV modules less susceptible to efficiency loss and increases tolerance to micro fractures.
