LONGi Solar Expands Its Canadian Presence, Brings New High-Performance Module to Rapidly Growing Market

As part of the expansion, LONGi is bringing its flagship distributed solar module for the Canadian residential and commercial sectors—the Hi-MO 5 54-cell module.

LONGi is accepting orders for the high-performance 415-watt monofacial module from its Canadian distribution partners, with first deliveries slated for late Q1 2023.

Based on the same M10 182-mm monocrystalline wafer technology used in the company's market leading large-format utility-scale 72-cell modules, the Hi-MO 5 54-cell module delivers superior power generation, consistent performance, high module efficiency and reduced system costs with an aesthetic appearance for rooftop distributed generation (DG) projects.

Like other LONGi modules, its robust mechanical design make it a reliable choice to deal with large snow loads, subzero temperatures, hail and other adverse weather conditions encountered in Canada. 

The module's availability bolsters LONGi's already strong order pipeline in Canada. In 2023, LONGi anticipates its Canadian order book will double in size and will be hiring new team members to support the growing business.

"LONGi has a strong presence in the Canadian market, where we work with all the major DG distributors as well as some of the largest energy companies on the utility project side," said Steven Chan, General Manager of LONGi North America. "The Canadian solar sector is experiencing exponential growth, especially in Alberta, with other provinces such as Ontario also poised for gigawatt-scale capacity additions. The combination of availability, quality, reliability and competitive pricing along with the full attention of our dedicated team positions LONGi well in this rapidly expanding market."
