The CS6.2 modules offer several key features. With a power output ranging from 630 W to 660 W, they boast a conversion efficiency between 23.3% and 24.4%. The modules also come with an open-circuit voltage between 48.8 V and 50.4 V, and a short-circuit current between 16.22 A and 16.55 A. The 66-cell modules measure 2,384 mm × 1,134 mm × 30 mm and weigh 32.3 kg.
One notable feature of the CS6.2 modules is their low power temperature coefficient of -0.28%/°C, which allows them to maintain strong performance in high-temperature environments. They also have a bifaciality rate of up to 85%, making them well-suited for regions with high-albedo environments, such as Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and South America.
Canadian Solar highlights five core technological advancements contributing to the improved performance of these modules. These include a new metallization printing process that reduces front-side shading losses by 30%, optimized sintering techniques that lower recombination resistance and increase open-circuit voltage by 10 mV, and a redesigned rear-side polysilicon structure that enhances bifacial gain by reducing parasitic absorption.
The CS6.2 modules are backed by a 12-year product warranty. Additionally, the modules are guaranteed to have no more than 1% power degradation in the first year, with a maximum of 0.4% annually over the following 30 years.
The company claims that these new modules can reduce the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) by up to 5% and lower balance-of-system (BOS) costs by as much as 2%. As a result, they are expected to deliver higher returns on projects. The modules are expected to enhance overall project economics, contributing to a more efficient and cost-effective solar energy solution.
