Frankfurt am Main
Solar panels are no longer just a tool for cutting electricity bills. They are becoming a long-term investment in home energy independence. And with every jump in solar cell efficiency, that investment becomes more powerful, compact, and future-ready. This spring, solar technology leader Longi announced not one, but two new world records in solar efficiency. These achievements offer a glimpse of what homeowners might soon see on their rooftops.

At the same time, Longi also set a new world record with its Tandem solar technology, combining silicon and perovskite layers to achieve a confirmed 34.85% cell efficiency.
These developments are also signs of where the solar market is headed: more electricity from smaller surfaces, improved aesthetics with no visible front-side wiring, and better performance in varying light conditions.
