LONGi Unveils New Hi-MO X6 Artist Ultra Black Module with 360-Degree Pure Black Appearance

LONGi unveiled its new Hi-MO X6 Artist Ultra Black module with a 360-degree pure black appearance. LONGi achieves this new level of black through a special glass surface structure and a premium cell selection process using automated optical inspection (AOI) during the manufacturing process.

In addition, the dual-glass module features a thicker glass front and POE film (Polyolefin Elastomer) for the module’s encapsulation, providing higher reliability and safety. Its bifacial characteristics make it suitable for a variety of rooftop PV application scenarios such as carports and winter gardens.

With LONGi’s high-efficiency HPBC technology (Hybrid Passivated Back Contact) the modules generate up to 1.54% more power than TOPCon modules under low light conditions – extending the power generating hours per day.

The Hi-MO X6 Artist Ultra Black module series is LONGi’s response to the growing demand for aesthetically pleasing solar modules in the residential sector and is available in Europe now. The module generates up to 435W at an efficiency of 22.3% and it comes with a product warranty of 25 years and a power warranty of 30 years.

The HPBC Black cell has a low-reflective texture and provides deeper light trapping, reducing reflection and increasing light absorption by 1.2%. This keeps the sunrays inside the cell, enabling a high-efficiency photovoltaic conversion. The structured glass uses the principle of diffuse reflection. It evenly reflects light that strikes the glass multiple times in different directions, creating a consistent 360-degree black optical effect at different installation angles. 

The Hi-MO X6 Artist Ultra Black and its aesthetic values have received two major design awards prior to its market launch: the 'Gold Winner of 2024' from the French Design Awards and 'IRON Winner of 2024' from A' Design Award & Competition.
