AIKO, a global leader in solar technology, has achieved a ground breaking milestone with the Australian Clean Energy Council approval of its Neostar 2S 470W solar panel.
This approval makes AIKO’s Neostar 470W the first solar panel in stock in Australia to deliver such high power in a standard residential module size—offering unprecedented efficiency and savings without increasing the panel’s footprint.
The Neostar 2S 470W black frame white back sheet panel, featuring AIKO’s advanced ABC technology, delivers an impressive 23.6 per cent efficiency within a compact format measuring just 1757 x 1134mm.
This innovative design allows homeowners and businesses to maximise their STC by packing more power onto their rooftops without requiring additional space.
Unlike other panels on the market, which may offer 430W or 440W, the Neostar 2S stands out for achieving a higher power output without increasing the panel size, making it ideal for Australia’s residential rooftops.
AIKO’s cutting-edge N-type ABC technology with back contact design has enabled the Neostar 2S 470W to deliver exceptional performance in a smaller format.
This breakthrough sets a new standard for the solar industry, making it easier for Australians to optimise their rooftop space while enjoying significant energy savings.
This achievement follows the company’s milestone in February 2024, when TÜV SÜD confirmed that AIKO’s large-format panels had reached an unprecedented module efficiency of 25.15 per cent, making them the first crystalline modules to surpass the 25 per cent mark.
The introduction of the 470W Neostar2S panel to the Australian market is a continuation of AIKO’s mission to bring the most advanced, efficient, and reliable solar solutions to customers worldwide.
According to Alex Hang, Head of AIKO APAC, the company is setting a new standard in the industry by continually pushing the boundaries of what solar technology can achieve.
“As a technology leader and Tier 1 module supplier, our innovations open doors for customers with limited roof space to go solar, empowering more people to contribute to a carbon-free era while maximising the benefits of solar energy,” Hang said.
AIKO’s N-type ABC modules are also equipped with best-in-class shade optimisation technology and have passed rigorous hail testing under TÜV Rheinland’s VKF testing regime.
This robust performance has caught the attention of insurance companies and installers alike, offering peace of mind and reliability in Australia’s diverse climate conditions.
As Australia continues to embrace renewable energy, AIKO is leading the way by making it easier than ever to go solar, aligning with its commitment to empower transformation towards a carbon-free era.
