Hi-MO X10 Awarded Class A Certification for Shadow Resistance by TÜV Rheinland
XI'AN, China, June 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Recently, LONGi's Hi-MO X10 series products have won the Class A certification for shadow resistance from Germany's TÜV Rheinland. As a world-renowned independent third-party testing, inspection, and certification body, TÜV Rheinland's certification holds extremely high authority and credibility. The Hi-MO X10 modules are built based on LONGi's revolutionary HPBC 2.0 cell technology and feature a unique bypass diode structure. In practical application scenarios, modules are often shaded by trees, bird droppings, buildings, equipment, etc., leading to a significant reduction in power generation efficiency and even triggering hot-spot effects, which affect the modules' service life and system safety. This innovative design of Hi-MO X10 enables the blocked current to autonomously bypass the shaded area and divert through other paths when encountering shading, ensuring the power output of the entire string of cells. Comparative experiments show that under the same shading conditions, its module power loss is reduced by more than 70% compared to TOPCon products, effectively addressing the pain point in the industry. With the cell mass production efficiency exceeds 26.6%, and the mass production efficiency of Hi-MO X10 modules reaches 24.8%, Hi-MO X10 not only excel in shadow resistance but also perform outstandingly in power generation and reliability. Meanwhile, through a series of innovations such as the half-cell technology, Bipolar Hybrid Passivation technology, smart welding process, and pure silver grid lines, it reduces slicing losses, edge leakage, and current transmission losses, improves cell degradation performance, and ensures the modules operate stably throughout their 30-year lifecycle, bringing long-term and reliable benefits to customers and users. LONGi's Hi-MO X10 series modules' recent acquisition of the Class A certification for shadow resistance from TÜV Rheinland is also a high recognition of its technological innovation and product quality. In the future, LONGi will improve product performance continuously with the spirit of innovation, provide more efficient and reliable solutions for the global PV market, and promote the sustainable development of the industry.

Shock moment tourist jumps railing and plunges 18ft into Terracotta Army pit before smashing two priceless statues
THIS is the shocking moment a tourist jumps a railing around the famous Terracotta Army and smashes up two of the priceless statues. The 30-year-old visitor leapt over the guard rail surrounding the clay warrior figures at a museum in the city of Xi'An on Friday. 5 5 Footage shows the aftermath of his jump and senseless destruction of the 2000-year-old artefacts. He can be seen lying on his back and rolling around - apparently in pain - at the bottom of an 18ft-deep pit. The alleged vandal is leaning against one of the ancient statues as alarmed onlookers peer down into the pit. Another angle shows the devastating extent of the damage to the statues. Two have been knocked over and lie in pieces on the floor after the man "pushed and pulled" the clay figures. They can clearly be seen to have crumbled in part - with officials reporting they were damaged to "varying degrees". Security guards for the museum quickly stepped in to grab the intruder before he inflicted more damage. Authorities said the man, identified only by his surname Sun, suffers from mental health problems. They also confirmed an investigation has been launched into the circumstances surrounding the incident. Concerns have been raised about how Sun managed to breach the security measures - consisting of a railing protective net - to plunge into the deep pit. Dramatic moment gang blow up museum door & steal 2,500-year-old Golden Helmet in Ocean's 11-style heist before vanishing Despite the intrusion, museum staff confirmed that the Xi'An exhibition remains open to the public. In 2017, an American man admitted to stealing a thumb from one of the terracotta warriors while it was on exhibition in Pennsylvania. Michael Rohana, in his early 20s, snapped it off when it was on display at the Franklin Institute museum. In that case, the statue was estimated to be worth $4.5million. 5 5 By that figure, the damage inflicted by the rogue tourist in Xi'An could amount to a whopping $9million, if the statues are ruined. Rohana was acquitted after his prosecution ended in a mistrial. His lawyer successfully argued that he was wrongly charged under laws that usually apply to major museum thefts. Surveillance footage had captured him "clowning around" with the statues and taking selfies, before appearing to break something from one before leaving. Museum staff noticed the missing thumb the following month and contacted the FBI. They later traced the thumb to Rohana, who admitted he had kept the thumb in a desk drawer. What is the Terracotta Army? THE Terracotta Army is a collection of sculptures depicting the army of China's first emperor, Qin Shi Huang. The warriors are made from terracotta, which is a type of reddish-brown clay. The army was crafted for the purpose of being buried alongside Huang when he died around 210 BC. It was believed they would help protect him in the afterlife. The sculptures were first discovered in 1974 by local farmers in Linton County, outside Xi'an. They vary in height according to their rank - with the generals built to be the tallest. Amongst the collection are around 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses, 150 cavalry horses and a range of other non-military figures. Some of the sculptures have been moved for display, whilst others remain in situ in the pits.
