Description
xMaximise your solar yield with this durable, high-performance bifacial panel from Bloomberg Tier-1 Manufacturer Elite Solar (know as ET-Solar).
This cutting-edge solar solution features advanced bifacial technology that generates power from both sides. Its underside produces an additional 110W from reflected sunlight, lifting its total potential output to 660W.
Built to last, the dual-glass construction extends the photovoltaic panel's lifespan to 34 years with minimal annual power degradation. Half-cut cells and thinner inter-cell busbars deliver optimal efficiency, while fewer hot spot risks ensure exceptional performance year after year.
This panel is an excellent choice for both ground mounting and flat roofs. Plus, with a 12-year warranty on parts, you can rest easy knowing you're getting a reliable, high-efficiency solar panel that will serve your needs for decades.
Albedo Factor is the amount of sunlight diffusely reflected by an object and varies according to the time of year, the season and the material covering the ground.
SOLAR PANEL FEATURES
- Bifacial technology enables additional energy production from the rear side of the panel by up to 20%
- Glass-to-glass lamination extends the product life to 30 years with annual power degradation of less than 0.4%
- The hot spot risk is reduced which is the main cause for early failures. The power and heat are evenly distributed on both sides of the panel.
- Half-cut solar panels have 50% shorter internal wiring, hence 50% lower resistance losses.
- Thinner inter-cell busbars mean more sunlight can be absorbed.
- Work at different angles even at 90 deg (vertical, for example on a fence) as long as they face the equator.
P-Type /Positive power tolerance of 0~+3%/Max module efficiency 21.48%
Notice: Ideal for ground mounting installation and flat roofs
DUAL GLASS SOLAR PANEL- BEFIT AND KEY FEATURES
- Module type: Bifacial+dual glass
- Cell size: 182*182mm
- Module dimension: 2278*1134*30mm
- Linear performance for 30 years
- The panel will preserve 85% of the original performance
- Warranty 12 years for the parts including frame, cells, diodes, and junction box.
- Module peak power: 550W(front side)+115W(21% increased from back side), in total 665.5W
THERMAL FACTOR FOR DOUBLE GLASS PV
The dual-glass modules have also better thermal conductivity compared to the conventional back sheet. The thermal resistance of dual glass is slightly lower than that of ordinary modules. The smaller the thermal resistance, the better the heat conduction.
The thermal diffusivity of glass is significantly higher than that of the back plate.
Thermal diffusion coefficient α=λ/ρ C: The larger the value, the faster the heat diffusion inside the module, and the better the temperature uniformity of the module.
Uniform temperature can also reduce mismatch and hot spots, bringing more power generation
