Huasun Energy has successfully delivered 1,386 V-Ocean heterojunction (HJT) solar modules for the 800 MW Phase 1 of Power Construction Corporation of China’s (Power China) offshore PV project in Jimo District, Qingdao, East China. This delivery marks the beginning of module supply, just one month after Huasun secured the contract for Power China’s 1 GW HJT project. The rapid delivery underscores Huasun’s robust production and supply chain capabilities, enabling an expedited timeline for the project’s grid connection.
Located in Qingdao, Shandong Province of China, the 1 GW project is Power China’s first large-scale offshore PV initiative. Designed to harness both solar and marine resources for sustainable power generation, the project is a key step in supporting environmental and economic goals.
Offshore solar plants offer significant advantages over land-based systems, including higher energy efficiency, environmental benefits, and no land occupation. However, the harsh offshore environment presents unique challenges, such as extreme weather (typhoons, strong waves) and saltwater corrosion, which require solar modules with exceptional performance and durability.
To address these challenges, Huasun’s V-Ocean modules incorporate high-performance butyl adhesive at the module edges (with a water vapor transmission rate of ≤0.3 g/㎡·d), effectively isolating moisture and extending the lifespan of the modules. Huasun’s V-Ocean modules use 210x105 mm cells featuring a 20BB ultra-dense busbar interconnection technology, which effectively prevents microcracks during transportation, installation, and operation. The V-Ocean modules have passed TÜV SÜD’s rigorous 14,400-cycle shock testing without developing any microcracks. Additionally, the modules underwent 12x dynamic mechanical load (DML) cycling tests and 6000Pa/3000Pa static mechanical load (SML) tests, demonstrating a degradation rate of less than 0.5%. Through optimized materials and encapsulation, Huasun always ensures high efficiency and long-term reliability, providing solid returns for customers.
Throughout the project, Huasun’s sales and technical support teams conducted multiple site visits to collaborate with the design institute and general contractors. Their close coordination ensured seamless integration of the V-Ocean modules with the mounting systems, guaranteeing the successful alignment of the delivered modules with the project’s requirements.
The Qingdao Jimo Offshore PV Project underscores the expanding partnership between Power China and Huasun Energy in renewable energy. This project is aligned with national objectives for energy transition and low-carbon development. It will significantly boost the share of renewable energy in China’s total energy supply, lower carbon emissions, and drive sustainable economic growth.
This is the first one.
