Risen marked 18 years of local presence in Australia at an event at Crown Towers Melbourne, launching a new heterojunction (HJT) solar module aimed at rooftops while showcasing a separate module for large-scale projects.

Rooftop and Utility Modules

The company introduced RisenSpace, a 500Wp HJT module designed for residential and commercial rooftops. It also showcased the 760Wp Hyper-ion Ultra module for utility-scale solar projects.

According to Risen, the two modules address distinct project needs, extending its HJT portfolio from rooftop installations to large-scale solar farms.

RisenSpace Technology and Warranties

RisenSpace adopts the company's heterojunction technology and 0BB (zero-busbar, stress-free interconnection) technology, leveraging HJT cell technology capable of achieving an efficiency of up to 27.5%.

Designed for Australia's demanding climate, the module offers resistance to microcracking and ultraviolet ageing and is backed by 40-year product and performance warranties. Risen said its introduction expands options for Australian households and businesses seeking long-term solar generation.

Research Collaboration

Dr. Yang Pochuan, Vice President and Chief Researcher at Risen, presented developments in HJT technology and their relevance to solar applications.

Professor Brett Hallam from the University of New South Wales (UNSW) shared progress on joint research under the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA) program. The research focuses on reducing carbon emissions and material consumption in solar manufacturing, including reliance on critical metals.

The presentations connected product development with longer-term manufacturing challenges, highlighting the role of research collaboration in improving solar technology while reducing its environmental footprint.

Broader Australian Portfolio

Beyond solar modules, Risen's Australian portfolio spans utility-scale projects, residential and commercial applications, and integrated energy storage solutions. The company said this breadth supports its approach to connecting power generation, grid interaction, electricity consumption and storage across different customer needs.

Risen is also showcasing its HJT modules and energy storage systems at Booth KK113 at All Energy Australia in Melbourne.

Risen said that building on 18 years of local relationships, it will continue investing in innovation and collaboration in Australia, supporting customers and partners as they advance the country's clean energy transition.
