These amorphous silicon layers reduces the recombination of electrons to minimum level.

Electrodes

Ultra-thin amorphous silicon layer

N340/N335

Panasonic’s unique heterojunction technology uses ultra-thin amorphous silicon layers. These thin dual layers reduce losses, resulting in higher energy output than conventional panels.

Advanced bifacial cell designed for increased energy output. The cell utilizes sunlight reflected back from the rear side material which captures more light and converted into energy.

PRELIMINARY

Our competitive advantages

High Efficiency at High Temperatures

As temperature increases, HIT® continues to perform at high levels due to the industry leading temperature coefficient of -0.258% /⁰C. No other module even comes close to our temperature characteristics. That means more energy

throughout the day.

Quality and Reliability

Panasonic’s vertical integration, 21 years of experience manufacturing HIT® and 20 internal tests beyond those mandated by current standards provides extreme quality assurance.

Low Degradation

HIT “N-type” cells result in extremely Low Light Induced Degradation (LID) and zero Potential Induced Degradation (PID) which supports reliability and longevity. This technology reduces annual degradation to 0.26% compare to 0.70% in conventional panels, guaranteeing more power

for the long haul.

25 Year Product and Performance Warranty**

Industry leading 25 year product workmanship and performance warranty is backed by a century old company- Panasonic. Power output is guaranteed to 90.76% after 25 years, far greater than other companies.

Higher Efficiency 20.3%

Enables higher power output and greater energy yields. HIT® provides maximum production for your limited roof space.

Enhanced Frame Design

A new 40mm frame increases durability and strength, being able to handle loads of up to 5400Pa. Also, the water drainage system gives rain water and snow melt a place to go, reducing water stains and soiling. Less dirt on the module means more

sunlight getting through to generate power.
