DAS Innovation: Driving Green Momentum through Technological Excellence
Innovation remains the cornerstone of DAS Solar's development strategy. In 2024, the company continued to champion a technology-driven and efficiency-first approach, spearheading advancements in N-type TOPCon technology. The company's TOPCon cells have progressed from 1.0 to 4.0 Plus, with TOPCon 4.0 Plus cells reaching 26.7% mass production efficiency and 742 mV open-circuit voltage. The N-type modules deliver 610.15W output with 24.02% module efficiency, setting new industry benchmarks in performance and reliability. Widely adopted in utility projects and complex environments, the series has earned global recognition for its consistent energy yield and long-term durability.
While deepening its leadership in TOPCon, DAS Solar is also advancing DBC, TSiP perovskite tandem, and SFOS technologies, forming a "One Core, Three Branches" long-term innovation strategy aimed at achieving 40% cell efficiency in the future.
To foster an innovation ecosystem, DAS Solar has strengthened collaborations with leading institutions including UNSW, Zhejiang University, and Xiamen University, accelerating the commercialization of cutting-edge research. By 2024, the company held 528 active patents across areas such as materials, cell structures, and packaging processes.
With its strong R&D foundation, DAS Solar has built three major scenario-based PV solutions: DAS ECO , DAS Urban, and DAS Floating. These offerings promote integrated solar deployment across desert greening, agriculture, urban architecture, and aquaculture, continuously expanding the boundaries of solar application and forming a diverse, synergistic clean energy ecosystem.
DAS Environment: DASGREEN Strategy Powers Low-Carbon Manufacturing
Sustainability lies at the heart of DAS Solar's operations. Under its DASGREEN strategy, the company has systematically advanced green manufacturing, carbon footprint management, and product recycling, establishing a low-carbon operational framework that spans the entire production process and product life-cycle.
In 2024, DAS Solar's Quzhou and Zhangzhou bases were recognized as Zero Carbon Factory by TÜV SÜD, thanks to their use of green energy, energy-efficient processes, and real-time carbon monitoring systems. With a digital energy management platform, the company achieved full visibility of energy use and improved energy efficiency across all operations.
DAS Solar also made significant progress in module recycling, developing mechanical separation techniques and investing in advanced recycling lines to support a more circular PV economy. Its lightweight modules are 100% recyclable, with a 17.3% lower carbon footprint than conventional products. The company holds international green certifications including French ECS, Italy EPD, and Achilles. Additionally, DAS Solar contributed to the 2024 edition of the China PV Recycling and Circular Economy White Paper, providing in-depth analysis on economic viability and reuse strategies for retired modules.
As of 2024, the company's global module shipments have helped reduce carbon emissions by approximately 57.96 million tons, equivalent to saving 21.04 million tons of standard coal annually, making a lasting impact on the global energy transition.
