More interest is focusing on photovoltaic (PV) power generation, which can use an unlimited source of clean energy - the sun. Kaneka decided to begin research into thin film silicon PV modules at an early stage. This has allowed the company to assume a leading position in the industry over the past 20 years. Kaneka's accumulated expertise now makes it possible to offer next-generation energy all over the world through its advanced PV systems that empower individuals to take a proactive environmental role in their daily lives. Crystalline-Si PV modules lose some power-generating capability with rises in temperatures. But Amorphous-Si PV modules have higher power generation capability during extreme summer time. Amorphous-Si PV modules can deliver maximum performance during summer afternoons. Therefore the amorphous-Si PV systems can contribute during the time when the electricity is needed most for air-conditioners in houses and offices.*Kaneka Silicon PV's generated watt-power is approximately same as that of other crystalline silicon PVs during the winter months, but in summer the Kaneka Silicon PV generates significantly more power compared to other crystalline silicon PVs.Source: "NEDO/Ritsumeikan University Demographic Module Field Test and Operational Analysis" presented at the International PV SEC-11, Sapporo, Hokkaido, Japan, 1999.Installation location: Kusatsu, Shiga Prefecture Japan Slope angle: 15.3 degree Electrical Characteristics Stabilised values Initial values Nominal peak power (Wp) 60.0 79.0 Guaranteed minimum power (Wp) 57.0 75.05 Nominal voltage (V) 67.0 74.0 Nominal current (A) 0.90 1.04 Open-circuit voltage (V) 92.0 96.0 Short-circuit current (A) 1.19 1.22 Max fuse rating (A) 7.0 7.0 Physical Characteristics Maximum system voltage (V) 530 Length (mm) 960 (37.8") Width (mm) 990 (39") Height (mm) 40 (1.58") Weight (kg) 14 (31 lbs) Assembly holes ø 8 mm (pieces) 4     power tolerance +10%… -5% IEC 61646 tested and certified safety class II for system voltage up to 530 V (projected) power warranty 25 years (80%), 12 years (90%)* product guarantee 5 years* higher yield on plant due to higher power output on delivery high yields even at high module temperatures ecological advantage – extremely low consumption on material – energy payback time less than 2 years delivered ready for connection with cable and Multi-Contact plug-in connectors integrated bypass diodes 100% end control   Kaneka's amorphous silicon (a-Si) has superior light absorption per nominal watt power. Compared with mono-crystalline (c-Si) or poly-crystalline (poly-Si), it generates considerably more power per nominal watt power.Assuming that the total solar radiation per year (1.323kWh/m2) is 100%, Kaneka Silicon PV can produce 90.95% of actually generated watt-power, much higher than that of other crystalline silicon PVs (80 to 84%).

Installation location: Kusatsu, Shiga Prefecture Japan Slope angle: 15.3 degree Another advantage is that the single junction a-Si layer can be made extremely thin.The thickness of a-Si cell is 0.3, which is 1/600 of that of crystalline silicon cell.This uses less material and energy thereby enabling high productivity for mass production (approx. 200). EPT is the time a PV module to "pay back" the energy used in its manufacture by its own power generation.The EPT of amorphous-Si PV is 1.6 years, which is approximately 6 months shorter than that of crystalline silicon PV (2.2 years).EPT is one of the most important aspects when evaluating the ecological benefit of PV systems. Quality IEC 61646 tested and certified safety class II for 530 V system voltage (projected) Guarantee 25 years power warranty (80%)* 12 years power warranty (90%)* 5 years product guarantee* High performance power tolerance +10%… -5% higher yield on plant due to higher power output on delivery high yields even at high module temperatures Ecological advantage Extremely low consumption on material -> energy payback time less than 2 years Design Homogeneous colouring of frame and module surface -> high-class, harmonic appearance Shipping is $40 within the United States. PR, VI, Alaska and Hawaii will be $60. Canada will be $90 and $150 anywhere else in the world. Please email with any questions you may have. Thanks and good luck! Place a Bid!
