bSolar has entered into a contract with TSMB to partner on a 730 kW ground-mounted PV project in Tochigi, Japan.
The project will be based on bSolar's bifacial PV cells and represents a first step in the company's plan to enter the Japanese solar market. Bifacial cells collect sunlight by both front and rear surfaces, generating additional electricity from direct sunlight entering the module's rear side as well as from direct and diffuse light reflected from the ground, the company says.
