About product
Thornova Solar BG72(550) is a PV module fit for both residential and commercial applications. Thornova Solar engineers made the TS series durable and efficient while minimizing the amount of useful space required for their operation. The Passivated Emitter Rear Contact (PERC) technology ensures excellent power output. This solar cell type employs an additional reflective layer to absorb more sunlight.
To further boost the performance, Thornova Solar employs half-cut cell technology. Each of the panel’s 144 cells is only half the size of a traditional solar cell. This grants BG72(550) lower resistive losses and better shade tolerance. Given its size and weight, BG72(550) efficiency of 21.3% is quite impressive. And while conventional panels use only one side to absorb photons, bifacial modules employ both sides at the same time. Thanks to the technology, this model can be up to 30% more efficient. Thornova Solar offers 15 years of product warranty and guarantees 84.95% of original performance after 30 years of operation.
Thornova Solar TS panels have a high efficiency of 21.3 percent and take full advantage of the company's technologies, which have won Thornova Solar several honors. This PERC option produces more electricity per square foot of PV modules. This translates to shorter installation times and fewer clamps and racks. All of this lowers your overall expenditures and shortens the payback period.
This module makes the heat less dangerous since it has one of the lowest temperature coefficients in the market, losing just -0.33% of efficiency for every 1.8°F over 77°F.
Multiple tests are part of the Thornova Solar tight production requirements, which offer the highest level of quality assurance. Because of the facilities' high degree of automation, the business is able to uphold strict standards and minimize the number of warranty claims to an absolute minimum.
Thornova Solar guarantees limited degradation over the ensuing 30 years. The performance will only degrade by a maximum of 2% the first year, and then only by a maximum of 0.45% yearly after that. After the 30 years are over, your modules will still show at least 84.95% of nominal capacity. A substantial 15-year product warranty is also included with this 550 W Thornova Solar solar panel.
BG72(550) is resistant to PID, salt, acid and ammonia. It can also withstand up to 5400 Pa mechanical load on the front and 2400 Pa on the back. Such robustness is mainly due to the 1.38" thick aluminum alloy frame and a layer of protective glass.
