LONGi Unveils World’s First 700W HIBC Solar Module at SNEC 2025, Ushering in the “25%+ Era”
LONGi, the world’s leading solar technology company, has officially launched its groundbreaking HIBC (Hybrid Interdigitated Back Contact) technology and industry-first 700W PV module at the SNEC PV Power Expo 2025, setting a transformative benchmark for the global solar industry.
With a record-breaking module efficiency of 25.9% and a power density of 259W/㎡, LONGi’s latest innovation introduces the era-defining concept of “power density”, a new metric that redefines how module performance is measured. The company’s 700W HIBC module represents the next frontier in photovoltaic technology, kicking off the “25%+ Era” for mass-produced solar modules.
“We’re proud to bring the world’s first 700W back-contact module to the market,” said Dennis She, Vice President of LONGi. “This achievement is not just about higher wattage—it’s about fundamentally changing how the industry thinks about solar module performance, integration, and value.”
LONGi’s launch is not an isolated milestone but part of a broader evolution of its Back Contact (BC) technology ecosystem. Through strategic partnerships with leading research institutes and solar solution providers, the company is building a robust, scalable infrastructure to accelerate global adoption of ultra-high efficiency solar solutions.
As nations worldwide move towards sustainable energy transitions, LONGi’s BC ecosystem serves as a platform for collaborative innovation—enabling seamless integration of advanced technologies while maintaining commercial scalability and cost efficiency.
The launch also arrives at a critical time for solar markets like Pakistan, where stakeholders are urging the government to withdraw the 18% GST on solar panels to stimulate adoption and sustainability. LONGi’s innovation reinforces the need for a supportive policy environment that enables access to next-gen solar technologies and empowers national energy independence.
“LONGi’s breakthrough aligns with the urgent need for high-efficiency, scalable solar solutions in markets like Pakistan,” said a LONGi regional spokesperson. “Removing tax barriers will be instrumental in delivering these advancements to communities that need them most.”
With the 700W HIBC module, LONGi not only sets new records but reaffirms its role as the innovation leader in PV technology. This launch is a testament to the company’s relentless commitment to pushing the boundaries of science and engineering to build a cleaner, more efficient, and more accessible energy future.
