Chinese group AIKO announced it had crossed the threshold of 1 GW in orders for its third-generation INFINITE solar modules in Europe, during the 2025 edition of Intersolar Europe. This series of contracts strengthens the manufacturer’s commercial presence on the continent, as European demand for high-efficiency photovoltaic equipment continues to grow.

The INFINITE modules are based on ABC (All Back Contact) type N technology, which delivers higher efficiency compared to traditional tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) solar cells. According to AIKO, the ZeroGap cell configuration and InvisiRibbon technology enable a 4.8% increase in light capture area, with 30 to 40 watts more output per module compared to standard-size TOPCon cells.

Commercial agreements signed at Intersolar

During the trade fair, several agreements were signed directly at AIKO’s booth with European distributors and installers, whose names were not disclosed. These contracts aim to boost supply capacities for solar modules in markets such as Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain.

AIKO stated that European partners recognised the modules’ technical performance, increased resistance to microcracks and the gridless black design, which suits architectural integration requirements in both residential and commercial projects.

Steady demand for high-efficiency photovoltaic solutions

The new orders reflect a growing demand for advanced photovoltaic solutions in the European market, driven by the need to maximise energy output on limited surfaces. AIKO, positioning itself as a major player in solar cell innovation, continues to expand by focusing on high commercial value products.

According to data shared during the event, the INFINITE series now represents a significant portion of AIKO’s order portfolio on the continent. The company is also continuing efforts to strengthen partnerships across the photovoltaic value chain to secure long-term market access.
