Dutch solar panel manufacturer Euroenergy has unveiled a new series of solar PV panels, which it says is more powerful and 30% lighter than standard designs.
Named Dandelion, the new panels offer a power output that ranges from 410W to 430W, significantly more than the average of 250W to 400W. They are also more efficient, with efficiency spanning from 21.7% to 22.2%, more than the industry average of 15-22%.
In a statement, Euronergy said the Dandelion lightweight series is based on the PEC/I-UBC technology.
It added that compared to glass modules, the Dandelion range is silicon-based, as well as the same size and offers the same power, at only 30% of the weight.
“Euronergy uses self-owned conductive back sheet and conductive adhesive for the cell connection and self-developed insulation encapsulation composite material for the insulation of positive and negative electrodes,” the statement said.
The dimensions of each module are 1,1736.6mm x 1,098.2mm and they weigh 5.2kg. Each module operates from -40C to 85C.
Euroenergy added that its lightweight and flexible modules are designed for buildings that can’t take conventional modules, such as curved roofs or roofs with insufficient load-bearning capacity. They can also be used for vehicles, including caravans, buses, lorries and trains.

He has also written extensively for consumer titles like City AM, The Morning Star, and The Daily Express.
In 2020, he covered in detail the International Maritime Organisation’s (IMO) legislation on sulphur emissions and its effects on the global container shipping market as online editor of Port Technology International.
He also explored the initiatives major container ports and terminals have launched in order to ship vital goods across the world without polluting the environment.
Since then, he has reported heavily on the impact made by environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices on the supply chain of minerals, with a particular focus on rare earth mining in Africa.
As part of this, in 2022 Max visited mines and ports in Angola to hone in on the challenges being faced by one of the world’s biggest producers of rare earth minerals.
His most recent sustainability-related work came much closer to home, as he investigated the eco-challenges faced by independent retailers in the UK, specifically looking at how they can cut emissions and continue to thrive.
Max lives in South London and is an avid reader of books on modern history and ghost stories. He has also recently learned to play the game Mahjong and takes every opportunity to do so. He is also yet to find a sport he doesn’t enjoy watching.
