BAODING, China and ABU DHABI, Jan. 18,
2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Yingli Green Energy Holding Company
Limited (NYSE: YGE) ("Yingli Green Energy" or the "Company"), one
of the world's leading solar panel manufacturers, also known as
"Yingli Solar," today announced at
the World Future Energy Summit that innovative CleanARC®
anti-reflective (AR) glass coating is now available on all Yingli
product lines. Developed by California-based Enki Technology and
offered through Yingli, CleanARC® coating enables panels to
generate more energy over time while simultaneously reducing
cleaning requirements, creating additional project value in
comparison to conventionally coated panels.

Due to their high resistance to abrasion and environmental
degradation, Yingli's CleanARC® coated solar panels are ideal for
project sites with harsh environmental conditions such as
sandstorms, sea mist, high humidity, and extreme temperature
fluctuations. CleanARC® coated solar panels can also reduce
operations and maintenance expenses because the coating's structure
and hydrophobic properties enable more effective self-cleaning than
conventional AR coatings.
"We are pleased to bring this unique product to market in
partnership with Yingli. Glass coatings are a deceptively simple
component that create long-term financial implications for solar
project owners. Extensive lab and field testing demonstrates the
clear advantage of multi-functional CleanARC® coatings in
challenging operational environments," commented Kevin Kopczynski, Chief Executive Officer of
Enki Technology.
"It is extremely promising that our new CleanARC® coated solar
panels have already spurred project development in areas where
solar adoption has been constrained by harsh climates. By driving
innovation across all PV technology components, from cells to AR
coating, we are making solar power a pragmatic clean energy
solution everywhere the sun shines," commented Dr. Dengyuan Song,
Chief Technology Officer of Yingli Green Energy.
