HANGZHOU, China, Jan. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On January 7th, Astronergy officially launched ASTRO N7 Pro, the company's next-generation PV modules designed to set new benchmarks in power output, efficiency, and long-term system value. Featuring a power output of up to 670W and a maximum efficiency of 24.8%, ASTRO N7 Pro addresses the evolving demands of utility-scale and C&I distributed solar projects globally.
ASTRO N7 Pro is powered by Astronergy's upgraded TOPCon 5.0+ solar cell technology, integrating industry-leading technologies such as ASP, PF, SNOP. A key upgrade is the adoption of quarter-cut design: quarter-cut cell tech reduces internal current of cells, lowering power loss. Meanwhile, quarter-cut cell layout design effectively reduces the peak hot spot temperature and power loss, improving module reliability and system safety.
In practical operating environments, ASTRO N7 Pro demonstrates strong resilience under partial shading conditions. Its unique circuit design effectively reduces shading impact, enabling up to 20% more power output than half-cut-cell modules when shading occurs.
These modules also deliver reliable performance in low-irradiance and high-temperature conditions. Improved Rsh and fewer current leakage paths enable ASTRO N7 Pro to achieve 6.05% increase in single-watt power gain compared with BC products. This ensures stable energy production during early mornings, late afternoons and cloudy weather. Supported by a temperature coefficient of -0.26%/°C, ASTRO N7 Pro can maintain consistent power generation in regions with high temperatures.
With bifaciality reaching up to 85±5%, ASTRO N7 Pro earns 1–3% additional bifacial power gains over BC products. Its reliability is further reinforced through the quarter-cut cell layout, 20BB design, and a low-temperature & low-stress manufacturing process without flux, which together lead to a more uniform stress distribution, reduced hidden crack risks, and durable long-term performance.
Designed for higher returns across the project lifecycle, ASTRO N7 Pro comes with a 30-year linear power warranty and a 15-year product warranty. Compared with same-size BC modules, there's a 1.2% increase in both first-year power generation and 30-year cumulative power generation, and LCOE is cut by 1.2%.
ASTRO N7 Pro is more than just a new product series, but Astronergy's continued focus on customer needs across diverse application scenarios. With the launch of ASTRO N7 Pro, Astronergy keeps powering a sustainable future through innovation, reliability and greater profits.

Astronergy Launches ASTRO N7 Pro to Unleash Pro Performance
LAS VEGAS, Jan. 9, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Guide Sensmart (Booth 21740, Central Hall), a global leader in thermal imaging technology, officially launched its next-generation thermal imaging innovation – ApexVision – alongside a series of new products empowered by the technology. This launch represents a systemic leap for the industry from merely "seeing heat" to "seeing with clarity, precision, and intelligence," marking the dawn of a new era defined by Ultra-Clarity.
CES Show Floor Reaction: "Ultra-Clarity" Draws Deep Engagement
At the Guide Sensmart booth, live product demonstrations powered by ApexVision attracted strong attention from industry analysts to global media. Hands-on comparisons—such as maintaining clear imaging details of distant targets and delivering crisp, smear-free imaging of fast-moving objects—earned consistent praise. Many professional visitors noted that this reliable "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" clarity would directly enhance operational efficiency and decision-making confidence.
ApexVision integrating both hardware and software: It combines the high-sensitivity ApexCore S1 detector, the Nexus 1.0 processing platform, and scenario-optimized algorithms. Together, ApexVision successfully overcomes persistent challenges such as low contrast in complex environments, detail loss at long range or high magnification, motion blur on fast-moving objects, and inaccurate detection of minute temperature differences.
From Architecture to Application: A Full Portfolio Empowered
On the CES show floor, Guide Sensmart demonstrated how ApexVision delivers tangible improvements across thermal devices. Thermography tools (e.g. E3S, H6S thermal cameras) leverage the SharpIR 2.0 algorithm to provide stable, accurate temperature measurement in demanding environments, enabling inspectors to pinpoint hidden faults with greater confidence. Outdoor hunting optics (e.g. TD650LS monocular and TN650MS binocular), benefit from Hyper-Light 2.0, allowing users to identify nocturnal wildlife in complete darkness and track fast-moving targets while maintaining clean, sharp images even at 10× zoom.
"The launch of ApexVision marks a milestone where our vertically integrated technology development translates into real value for users," said a Guide Sensmart spokesperson. "It is more than a set of specifications—it delivers the certainty of Ultra-Clarity to every professional user."
The debut of ApexVision at CES 2026 signifies more than a routine product update. By resolving long-standing trade-offs between sensitivity, stability, and environmental robustness, Guide Sensmart is advancing thermal imaging into the Ultra-Clarity Era, building a clearer, safer, and more efficient future.
