PR Newswire

ISMANING, Germany, June 11, 2012

- Hanwha Solar's new and improved module offerings provide greater

options for residential, utility and commercial segments

ISMANING,

Germany

, June 11, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Hanwha Solar, a global

provider of total photovoltaic (PV) solar solutions and a flagship company of

top-10 Korean business enterprise Hanwha Group, is launching an expanded

portfolio of products and services at this year's Intersolar Europe. This includes

improvements to its

Professional Line

and two new application-specific modules

—HSL 60 Mono equipped with Solrif and HSL 60 Poly Smart featuring a DC/DC

optimizer—as well as the pre-launch of its new

High Performance Line

designed

for the rooftop and small commercial segments.

"Premium quality and technical leadership are essential elements of Hanwha

Solar's business strategy," said Charles Kim, president of Hanwha Solar. "The

introduction of these new modules, which are backed by an industry leading 25-

year linear performance and 12-year workmanship warranty, provides our

customers access to even more high-quality products that deliver the results

they demand. With a wide range of options and services and the strong

financial backing of the FORTUNE-500 Hanwha Group, Hanwha Solar provides

reliable and optimized solar solutions to its partners and customers."

Andreas Liebheit, vice president and managing director of Hanwha SolarOne

added, "Hanwha Solar is continuously investing in our product portfolio to meet

the needs of our customers and partners in all segments. In addition to

innovative products, Hanwha Solar is also focused on expanding its value-added

services, such as financing and co-development, and is looking into new

avenues of cooperation."

High Performance Line

for the rooftop segment

The

High Performance Line

features top quality modules with 6" mono-

crystalline cells designed for maximized yield where space is limited. Available

in two sizes—48 cells and 60 cells—the mono modules are available in power

classes up to 215W and 260W, respectively. Targeting house-owners concerned

with aesthetics, the Hanwha Solar portfolio includes a Black Diamond version of

the mono modules that features a black backsheet and frame. The new mono

modules will be launched in the European market in the beginning of the third

quarter of 2012.

Improved performance for the

Professional Line

Further improving customer value, Hanwha Solar has enhanced the efficiency

of its existing poly modules SF 220 and SF 260. The newly improved modules

are now available in power classes of up to 300W, and are designed for long-

term performance and rough conditions. Hanwha Solar's 72-cell poly module SF

260 was among the first in the industry to pass the rigorous TUV Rheinland

Long-Term Sequential Test even before this most recent performance update.

Tailored solutions to meet customer needs

Hanwha Solar will also showcase two new application-specific modules at the

exhibition. The HSL 60 Mono, equipped with Solrif, offers a PV in-roof

installation system designed to replace conventional roof tiles. The system is

flexible, suitable for both new buildings and retrofitting, and can either partially

or completely cover roofs. The new HSL 60 Poly Smart Module, designed for

the residential and commercial segments, comes with an integrated test

winning* DC/DC optimizer for improved overall system performance. The

optimizer dynamically identifies the maximum operating state for each panel

and maintains system stability during cloud cover or shading, ensuring

additional peak system up-time. Both modules will be introduced to the

European market in the second half of 2012.

Intersolar visitors are invited to learn more about the extended portfolio at the

company's booth, Hall A2, 450.
