Astronergy’s modules for 555 MW fishery-PV hybrid project

Integrated solar manufacturer Astronergy has announced that it has completed the supply of solar modules for a large-scale fishery-PV hybrid project in Jianhu County, Yancheng City, Jiangsu Province. The project, with a total capacity of 555 MW AC, combines aquaculture with solar power generation. Astronergy supplied ASTRO N5 bifacial dual-glass modules for the 242 MW AC Phase I of the project, which is now grid-connected.

According to the company, ASTRO N5 features double-layer anti-reflective coated glass, in-house developed high-sealing junction boxes, and corrosion-resistant frames. It claims these configurations enable the modules to operate stably for 30 years in hot and humid environments.

In July, Astronergy was named one of the winners for a module procurement tender for a 766.6 MW PV project (see China Solar PV News Snippets).
