Risen Energy Wins 150 MW Module Order in Malaysia

Risen Energy has received an order to provide 150 MW of high-efficiency solar PV modules to power up a power station in Malaysia.

Chinese solar panel maker Risen Energy has recently announced the receipt of an order to provide 150 MW of high-efficiency solar PV modules to a power station in Malaysia. The order for 150 MW modules is the biggest module order the company has to date won both in Malaysia and from an overseas floating power station.

As part of the agreement, Risen Energy will supply high-efficiency Jaeger 144 modules with output power up to 395W each to the project. The modules will be shipped in batches starting this month and the delivery is scheduled to be completed by June 2020.

Risen Energy president Xie Jian said that Malaysia is one of the key emerging markets as it boasts abundant light resources and policies favourable to the industry.

“We are excited to be a part of the project in Malaysia. To ensure the smooth operation of the power station, once completed, we will equip the facility with our Jaeger modules, which have proven better performance in resistance to light-induced degradation (LID) and light and elevated temperature-induced degradation (LeTID).

“Our optimised Jaeger modules can minimise hotspots and the impacts from shade effect on their performance in power generation. With a lower total cost of ownership and labour expense, our modules will bring the project owner a lower levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) and higher income from power generation.”

The company has also announced that it has also expanded its presence across major markets in the US, Europe, Southeast Asia, Central Asia and the Asia-Pacific region. Notably, the company has achieved remarkable results in Kazakhstan and Ukraine, among other markets along “the Belt and Road.”

Additionally, the company is also accelerating the growth of its energy storage business as its integrated “PV + energy storage” and “PV + energy storage + charging”. Furthermore, smart microgrid solutions have been used in commercial applications.
