Recently, the visiting and exchange event for the "International Training Course on New Energy Photovoltaic Metrology and Testing Technology," hosted by the National Institute of Metrology (NIM), was successfully held. The event gathered metrology experts and institutional representatives from dozens of countries across Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Eastern Europe for in-depth discussions on cutting-edge technologies and future trends in PV testing.
As the environmental reliability test equipment supplier for NIM, Shanghai Houyao was invited to participate. Our team engaged in substantive technical exchanges with the international delegates, focusing on high-precision testing methodologies for photovoltaic modules.
Within NIM's laboratories, two flagship testing systems supplied by Shanghai Houyao—the Steady-State Solar Simulator and the Comprehensive UV Aging Chamber—served as key demonstration units, drawing significant attention from the attendees.
These devices are essential R&D and testing tools for NIM, consistently deployed to meet the field's most stringent requirements for accuracy. The Comprehensive UV Aging Chamber, in particular, showcases Houyao's advanced R&D capabilities. It is noteworthy that Shanghai Houyao participated in the entire development process of the IEC TS 63556 standard. This chamber was developed proactively and is fully equipped to satisfy all the standard's future combined stress testing requirements, underscoring Houyao's foresight in applying industry standards.
During the technical presentation, the Houyao team centered its discussion on the theme of "Precision and Stability," providing foreign experts with a detailed walkthrough of the equipment's engineering implementation.
In metrology, data authenticity and reliability are paramount. Through live demonstrations, Houyao engineers illustrated how the systems utilize precise hardware control and integrated system design to maintain an ultra-stable testing environment, even under extreme conditions. This ensures that every piece of generated data is robust enough to withstand rigorous international standard scrutiny.
Experts from various countries expressed keen interest in the technical depth demonstrated by Houyao's equipment, fostering a vibrant atmosphere for on-site exchange. The international guests closely observed the operational details and commended Houyao's technical expertise in simulating complex environmental conditions.
This successful demonstration at a premier national metrology platform not only validated the professional performance of Houyao's equipment but also reinforced the brand's confidence and capability on the global stage.
With years of expertise in environmental reliability testing, Shanghai Houyao has built extensive global service experience. To navigate the varying entry requirements of international markets, our equipment portfolio comprehensively meets major certifications, including U.S. UL, ETL, and European CE standards. This enables us to provide global customers with testing solutions that comply with both local regulations and internationally recognized benchmarks.
From participating in the development of international standards to serving national metrology institutions, Shanghai Houyao remains grounded in "Precision" and committed to "Stability." Moving forward, we will continue to collaborate with top-tier research partners like NIM. Through continuous technological innovation, we are dedicated to safeguarding the quality of global green energy and advancing the "China Solution" on the international stage.
