So we thought about how to get rid of the welding strip. And in a component, the solder joint between the solder strip and the sub-grid is a component 2. So our researchers developed such an integrated conductive backplane, and directly made the backplane conductive, thus killing the solder strip. This battery is stacked on top one by one, so that its reliability can be further improved and its conductivity can be better. Because when you restore this film to this cylindrical solder strip, its conductive cross-sectional area increases by 85%, so its resistance is further reduced, and its efficiency can be further improved.
In addition, this integrated metal backplane has a part of long-wave light, which shines under the silicon wafer and reflects back. It can also increase the absorption of long-wave light, and the efficiency is further improved. What kind of impact
do you think this technology will bring to the industry? First, I don't know if you know about the circuit board of the computer in the 1960s. It was not an integrated circuit board like it is now. It was connected one by one with thin wires. If you look at that computer, you will see a house of wires in a mess. Later, in the seventies and eighties, people invented the integrated circuit board. You can see that it was a clean circuit board, and all the functions were solved. So I think for the photovoltaic industry, it is an integrated circuit board.
The second technology is that Tesla has a big die-casting. In the past, the structure of a car body needed sixty or seventy parts, which were very complicated to weld. Then Tesla made an integrated die-casting, and now the millet car also uses this technology. You see, in the past, you used 400 meters of grid lines and more than 10,000 solder joints. Well, now you don't need them. An integrated backplane has been completely solved, which is very subversive. Therefore, it also brings great innovative technology to the industry from the bottom.
This time, from ACM to integrated backplane, including batteries to components, to energy storage to a lot of new technologies, with this matrix technology, what kind of concept do you think Longji wants to bring to the industry? We have introduced so many technologies this time, which stems from our persistence and research on technology in the past. The second is the concept of "technology forest" that we have launched. Every technology is a technology tree. In the future, I can piece together some new products among these technology trees. We have this kind of forest soil, we can also plant more seeds of science and technology, one day in the future, these seeds will grow a new towering tree, science and technology tree.
What we want to convey to this industry is that the competition in the industry is very fierce now. What can really help each of our enterprises break through this cycle is never price war, never involution, but technological innovation, subversive technological innovation. Then we also reviewed the development of China's photovoltaic industry in the past 20 years. We went from following to taking the lead in the end. In fact, we reviewed it and found out why China's photovoltaic industry has today's position in the global photovoltaic industry? Because we have broken through the double pull crystal, because of the polycrystalline to single crystal, because of the BC technology, because of the progress of TOPCon technology. And these technological breakthroughs are not a single enterprise, but the common progress of hundreds of enterprises in the whole ecological chain, which has made us what we are today. Therefore, we want to pass on the future through this activity today. We Chinese photovoltaic people need to work together and innovate collaboratively in order to achieve a better future and tomorrow for China's photovoltaic industry.
