As land scarcity restricts solar deployment along transportation corridors in major urban areas such as railways, transit systems, and expressways vertical photovoltaic (PV) systems are emerging as a space-efficient solution. Huasun Energy’s high-performance heterojunction (HJT) modules are paving the way for a new wave of vertical installations aimed at integrating clean energy into constrained transport environments.
Taking China as an example, government agencies like the Ministry of Transport are actively promoting increased renewable energy usage along transport infrastructure, with a target of adding 5 GW of non-fossil capacity by 2027. Additionally, the complete EV charging coverage in service areas across 11 provinces indicates readiness for widespread solar integration.
Huasun’s Kunlun series HJT modules, which deliver up to 768.9 W of peak output and nearly 100% bifaciality, are ideally suited for vertical PV applications. Whether installed vertically in portrait or landscape orientation, these modules significantly reduce ground footprint and integrate seamlessly into existing infrastructure without necessitating changes to layout or design.
In addition to conserving space, vertical installations produce more electricity during the morning and evening, when energy demand and prices are typically higher. This helps avoid the lower prices associated with traditional tilted systems around midday. Huasun’s performance assessment in Xinjiang, western China, demonstrated that under time-of-use electricity pricing, vertical systems achieved a 2.29% higher internal rate of return (IRR) compared to conventional tilted systems.
With nearly 100 MW of vertical PV projects already deployed in Germany, Huasun’s HJT modules are well-positioned to support the global movement toward integrated “PV + Transport” solutions. From expressways to airports, they provide a scalable pathway to cleaner, more efficient mobility.
