HANGZHOU, China, Jan. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On January 7^th, Astronergy officially launched ASTRO N7 Pro, the company’s next-generation PV modules designed to set new benchmarks in power output, efficiency, and long-term system value. Featuring a power output of up to 670W and a maximum efficiency of 24.8%, ASTRO N7 Pro addresses the evolving demands of utility-scale and C&I distributed solar projects globally.

ASTRO N7 Pro is powered by Astronergy’s upgraded TOPCon 5.0+ solar cell technology, integrating industry-leading technologies such as ASP, PF, SNOP. A key upgrade is the adoption of quarter-cut design: quarter-cut cell tech reduces internal current of cells, lowering power loss. Meanwhile, quarter-cut cell layout design effectively reduces the peak hot spot temperature and power loss, improving module reliability and system safety.

In practical operating environments, ASTRO N7 Pro demonstrates strong resilience under partial shading conditions. Its unique circuit design effectively reduces shading impact, enabling up to 20% more power output than half-cut-cell modules when shading occurs.

These modules also deliver reliable performance in low-irradiance and high-temperature conditions. Improved Rsh and fewer current leakage paths enable ASTRO N7 Pro to achieve 6.05% increase in single-watt power gain compared with BC products. This ensures stable energy production during early mornings, late afternoons and cloudy weather. Supported by a temperature coefficient of –0.26%/°C, ASTRO N7 Pro can maintain consistent power generation in regions with high temperatures.

With bifaciality reaching up to 85±5%, ASTRO N7 Pro earns 1–3% additional bifacial power gains over BC products. Its reliability is further reinforced through the quarter-cut cell layout, 20BB design, and a low-temperature & low-stress manufacturing process without flux, which together lead to a more uniform stress distribution, reduced hidden crack risks, and durable long-term performance.

Designed for higher returns across the project lifecycle, ASTRO N7 Pro comes with a 30-year linear power warranty and a 15-year product warranty. Compared with same-size BC modules, there’s a 1.2% increase in both first-year power generation and 30-year cumulative power generation, and LCOE is cut by 1.2%.

ASTRO N7 Pro is more than just a new product series, but Astronergy’s continued focus on customer needs across diverse application scenarios. With the launch of ASTRO N7 Pro, Astronergy keeps powering a sustainable future through innovation, reliability and greater profits.

Product innovation further links industry capabilities with consumer preferences. Last year, CHAGEE introduced over 20 new products. Within the Fresh Milk Tea series, more than 50% of new releases featured floral or fruit elements. By applying its Fresh Brew technology system, CHAGEE has integrated contemporary extraction techniques into freshly made tea beverage preparation, bringing new flavor expressions to traditional tea leaves.

In 2025, CHAGEE also completed over 10 craftsmanship and process innovation initiatives in collaboration with tea gardens, factories, and research institutions.

The 2025 Year-End Tea Friends Review further notes that CHAGEE now operates more than 25 pet-friendly stores, has supported the construction of 23 children’s playgrounds this year, opened 14 deaf-inclusive silent stores, added 219 new 24-hour locations, and opened new stores at an average rate of one every 1.7 days. Approximately 1340 stores joined CHAGEE’s Night Clean Project, supporting 18,000 store partners complete end-of-day operations on schedule.

“Making Friends Through Tea” is more than a tagline—it reflects CHAGEE’s ongoing approach of building lasting, respectful connections centered on shared tea experiences. Each day, CHAGEE brings people together through a cup of tea.
