Shinsung Unveils 4-Busbar Moni-Si Cells
Shinsung is a well-known Korean company in refrigerators, air conditioners, clean rooms, and automated systems. It challenges the PV industry through its own clean rooms, automated systems, and oversea channels. Currently, Shinsung has both mono-si and multi-si cell production outputs, as well as module production lines for market expansion.
Shinsung showed 4-busbar cells in the exhibition, using wire breakage technology to reduce paste use and lower costs. Shinsung uses high-quality cells to cooperate with tier-one global manufacturers. Hopefully, countries can earn more market shares in the U.S. through working with Korean manufacturers, which are not involved in any of the trade wars so far.
