The Ministry of Science and Technology recently announced the latest batch of national key research and development program "renewable energy and hydrogen technology" special public list, Sunshine Power led the application of "new photovoltaic medium voltage power generation unit modular technology and equipment" project was successfully selected. This is after taking the lead in 2016 to undertake the "smart grid technology and equipment" special project, Sunshine power was once again selected into the national key research and development plan project.

This project is led by Sungrow, and jointly undertaken by Zhejiang University, Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Hefei University of Technology, China Institute of Electric Technology and other units. The implementation cycle is three years. The project will break through a series of key technologies, form core independent intellectual property rights, establish a theoretical basis, technical system, and accumulate empirical experience for promoting the industrialization development of large-capacity PV medium voltage power generation equipment in China. New large capacity PV medium-voltage power generation equipment, high frequency inverter technology, it is proposed a new generation of power devices and high voltage direct hang technology, greatly reduce raw material consumption, improve system redundancy, reliability, power density, improve the system efficiency, further reduce the cost of PV systems to promote renewable energy on a large scale power parity on the Internet.

The National key R&D plan is integrated by the national "973 Program", "863 Program" and other scientific research special projects, which is related to the core competitiveness of Chinese industry, the overall independent innovation ability and national security of major scientific and technological issues, to break through the technological bottleneck in the main areas of national economic and social development. Over the years, Sungrow actively participates in it, undertakes important tasks, and adheres to the combination of industry-university-research cooperation and enterprise independent innovation, continuously increases R&D investment, and makes its own efforts in key technological breakthroughs and industrial leadership in the field of renewable energy and electric energy conversion.

科技部日前公布了最新一批国家重点研发计划“可再生能源与氢能技术”专项公示名单，阳光电源牵头申报的“新型光伏中压发电单元模块化技术及装备”项目成功入选。这是继2016年牵头承担“智能电网技术与装备”专项后，阳光电源又一次入选国家重点研发计划项目。

该项目由阳光电源牵头负责，浙江大学、上海交通大学、合肥工业大学、中国电科院等多家单位联合承担，实施周期三年。项目将突破一系列关键技术，形成核心自主知识产权，为提升我国大容量光伏中压发电装备产业化发展建立理论基础、技术体系，积累实证经验。新型大容量光伏中压发电装备，拟采用高频逆变技术、新一代功率器件和高压直挂技术，大幅度减少原材料消耗，提高系统冗余性、可靠性和功率密度，提升系统能效，进一步降低光伏系统成本，促进可再生能源大规模发电平价上网。
