The world's first GW-class stacked module production base went into operation!

Today, the highly anticipated GCL Optoelectronics GW-level perovskite industrial base was officially put into production in Kunshan. As the world's first GW-level stacked module production base, its production marks a historic breakthrough in the industrialization of perovskite technology and an important industry milestone in the new energy industry.

According to the introduction, the total investment of the GCL Optoelectronics GW-level perovskite industrial base project is 5 billion yuan, with a planned target production capacity of 2GW, and a 1GW perovskite commercial module production line will be deployed in advance. As a third-generation photovoltaic technology with great potential, perovskite is relying on its disruptive advantages to drive the industry to move forward in the direction of low-carbon and high-efficiency coordinated development, reshaping the photovoltaic industry landscape.

With the full mass production of this GW-level production line and the continuous optimization and upgrading of the industrial chain, the advantages of GCL perovskite stacked modules in cost control, efficiency, performance stability and other aspects will be further highlighted, releasing strong market competitiveness. Looking to the future, the project base will serve as the global R&D headquarters of GCL Optoelectronics, the future listed entity and the global group headquarters, actively attracting upstream and downstream companies to gather, fully cultivating and building a perovskite industry ecosystem, and moving forward towards the goal of 100 billion yuan in output value.

In his speech, Zhu Gongshan, Chairman of GCL Group, expressed confidence that he would take the commissioning of this project as a full opportunity to firmly implement the dual-wheel drive strategy of "GW-level mass production + scenario-based demonstration", anchor the clear roadmap of "gradually increasing production capacity - large-scale manufacturing - large-scale explosion of stacking production capacity", accelerate the application process of perovskite components in the market, and promote Suzhou to become the "technology source + application demonstration zone" in the global perovskite field, and contribute solid strength to the global energy transformation.

On the day of the commissioning ceremony, GCL Optoelectronics also ushered in another major good news - the AI ​​high-throughput joint R&D center jointly built with Suzhou Laboratory and Soochow University was officially unveiled. The joint R&D center will rely on advanced AI high-throughput systems, deeply integrate high-quality resources in the global perovskite scientific research field, and deeply cultivate perovskite formula, process, application, achievement transformation, industrialization and other diversified fields in all directions, and is committed to promoting greater breakthroughs and innovative development of perovskite technology.

It is worth mentioning that in June, GCL Optoelectronics made breakthroughs in the field of perovskite component certification.

On June 11, its independently developed large-scale stacked perovskite photovoltaic modules passed the rigorous testing of TÜV Rheinland Greater China at the Shanghai SNEC Conference, and were the first to obtain the photovoltaic module safety certification based on the IEC 61730 standard, and many core safety indicators exceeded the standard requirements.

In the same month, the perovskite commercial modules independently developed by Kunshan GCL Optoelectronics underwent 5 months of strict aging tests (key projects such as damp heat and thermal cycles) by TÜV Rheinland, Germany, which was 3 times the international standards of IEC 61215:2021 and IEC 61730:2023. The performance degradation and safety characteristics indicators were better than expected, making it the world's first perovskite company to pass this professional certification, fully demonstrating its technological breakthroughs in material systems, device structures and packaging processes.

The successful commissioning of the GCL Optoelectronics GW-level perovskite industrial base, as well as the implementation of a series of technical research and development results and cooperation projects, have undoubtedly injected a "boost" into the development of the perovskite industry, and will add strong momentum to the global energy transformation and sustainable development in the future.
