SANYO's hybrid silicon PV modules provide the world-class conversion efficiency¹. To decrease the loss of generated electricity at the interface, an intrinsic silicon thin layer is inserted between the crystalline silicon wafer and the amorphous silicon thin layer, these results in rising of generation efficiency. In general generation efficiency of PV module decreases in summertime, but SANYO's hybrid silicon PV module generated electricity actually increases by approx. 36% per year² The significances of SANYO's hybrid silicon PV modules are high conversion efficiency, light weight and compact that save the space up to 20%. SANYO's PV modules suit for solar power generation either for residence or on-grid commercial application.
