This all-black module line is specifically targeted for consumers in the residential market.

The introduction of these modules into the North and South American markets represents a strategic business decision for Canadian Solar’s Americas division.

The product features on these modules are unique in the marketplace with the “all-black concept” including a black frame, black backsheet, and dark cells in both mono and polycrystalline cell technologies.

The CS6K all-black monocrystalline modules with dark cells will be offered in three power classes: the 255W, 260W, and 265W. Meanwhile, the CS6K all-black polycrystalline modules with dark cells will be offered in two power classes: the 250W and 255W. The module efficiency on the monocrystalline module is 16.19%, while the module efficiency on the polycrystalline module is 15.58%.

Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Canadian Solar, commented, “The introduction of these all-black modules into the Americas market is a great addition to Canadian Solar’s diverse product portfolio, especially for the residential segment. In particular, this new product line will allow the company to continue gaining market share throughout the region.”
