On the morning of March 14, the reporter saw in St. Hui's New Energy Technology Co., Ltd. that the company's first batch of solar flexible thin-film batteries went offline. The founder of the company, Gao Liang, told reporters that the total amount of orders exceeded the current production capacity. 10 times, the first batch of products will be sent to the United States by the end of March.
According to Gao Liang, the solar flexible thin-film battery coating machine is the core production equipment of Shenghuilai. Currently, there are only 3 sets in the world, of which 2 are in Jurong and the other is in Nanjing Laboratory. As the world's first production base, Shenghui The two production lines in the smart workshop are making production orders without interruption. Every 10 seconds, there will be a 6-inch electronic board. It will move from the coating machine to the circuit printing machine and the bakeout production line, and it will be installed and automated. Intelligent throughout the entire production process. The thickness of the film is only one thousandth of the length of the hair. Each electronic board will be printed in both positive and negative directions. The two printed circuits must be completely overlapped. Therefore, automation and intelligence are indispensable. More than 4000 Within the square meter production area, there are only 20 staff members, 15 of whom are senior engineers from the United States and Sweden.
Gao Liang and the reporter calculated an account: In the past 30 years, the new energy market has been occupied by crystalline silicon solar energy, but the production cost of crystalline silicon solar 1W is 0.4 to 0.5 US dollars, solar energy conversion rate is about 17%. And CIGS soft The production cost of 1W after the production of membrane solar cells can be reduced to 0.3 US dollars, and the estimated solar energy conversion rate can reach 25%, and there will be an increase of 1% to 1.5% per year, with a maximum conversion rate of 31%. The production process is also very environmentally friendly.
'Foreseeable, Jurong will become the world's largest CIGS soft film solar cell production base in the next three years. 'Highlights.
