Aiko Solar

The manufacturer of photovoltaic panels Aiko Solar maintains its leading position among the most efficient commercially available photovoltaic modules. Modules from Chinese manufacturers occupy the entire podium.

TaiyangNews presented another update of the most efficient photovoltaic modules. Let us remind you that in order for a given panel to be qualified to the narrow group of distinguished panels, it must have an efficiency of at least 21.5%. Moreover, the product must be available for sale and its catalog card must be available on the manufacturer’s official website.

Aiko Solar continues its streak from 2023

In 2023, Aiko Solar’s photovoltaic modules led the manufacturer in the TaiyangNews ranking ten times in a row. The Chinese manufacturer took the top spot on the podium for the first time in March 2023 with its AIKO-A610-MAH72Mw module with a power of 610 W and an efficiency of 23.6%. This module guaranteed him first place for the next two months. Then in June, Aiko Solar took first place again, but this time thanks to the new Aiko-A620-MAH72Mw module with a power of 620 W and an efficiency of 24%.

From June 2023 until April 2024, the 620 W photovoltaic module allows Aiko Solar to be the undisputed leader of the TaiyangNews ranking. We’re talking about leadership here for 13 months in a row!

The basic parameters of the so far undefeated module are as follows. Its dimensions are 2278 x 1134 x 35 mm and the weight is 28.2 kg. The panel was made based on ABC (All-Back-Contact) cells. The open circuit voltage (Voc) was set at 53.69 V, and the short-circuit current (Isc) at 14.16 A. The values ​​of the power temperature coefficient, which determines the dynamics of the module performance drop when its operating temperature exceeds 25 degrees Celsius, is -0 .29 percent/degree C

The Aiko-A620-MAH72Mw photovoltaic module is covered by a 15-year manufacturer’s warranty and a 30-year efficiency warranty, which after the mentioned period is to be no less than 88.85%. initial value.

Chinese modules outclass the competition

Second place for the 13th time was awarded to a module from the Chinese manufacturer LONGi. Like Aiko Solar, LONGi started to occupy the second position already in 2023, and for the first time it jumped to second place in March last year with the LR5-72HTH-590 module with a power of 590 W and an efficiency of 22.8%. Interestingly, the same module allowed it to be in the leading position in February 2023, but in March a product from Aiko appeared.

In May 2023, LONGi began to maintain its second-place position with a new LR5-72TH-600M module with a power of 600 W and an efficiency of 23.3 percent, which guaranteed it the same place until this year’s March TaiyangNews ranking. The module has a power of 600 W and an efficiency of 23.2%. Its dimensions are 2278 x 1134 x 30 mm and the weight is 27.2 kg. The open circuit voltage (Voc) is set at 52.81 V, the short-circuit current (Isc) at 14.46 A, and the value of the power temperature coefficient is, as in the case of Aiko, -0.29%/deg. C. The module is covered by a 15-year manufacturer’s warranty, but the performance warranty is shorter at 25 years. After this period, the efficiency is to be no less than 88.9%. initial value.

In third place in the March ranking is still the Chinese module from Huasun, which closes the podium for the seventh time in a row, after pushing the module from Maxeon off the podium in September 2023.

The third most efficient module, i.e. HS-210-B132DS, is characterized by an extraordinary power of up to 715 W and an efficiency of 23.02%. The module has dimensions of 2384 x 1303 x 35 mm and weighs 38.7 kg. The open circuit voltage (Voc) is determined to be 50.59 V, the short-circuit current (Isc) is 17.43 A, and the power temperature coefficient value is -0.24%/deg. C

The product is covered by a 15-year product warranty and a 30-year performance warranty, which at the end of the mentioned period is to be min. 88 percent initial value.

Kalyon PV – a new player in the ranking

For the first time, the Turkish manufacturer of photovoltaic modules Kalyon PV appeared in the latest TaiyangNews ranking, immediately qualifying two of its modules. The first of them ranks 24th in the ranking and was made based on TOPCon cell technology. It has a nominal power of 580 W and an efficiency of 22.38%. (no specific model name given). The latter ranks 41st. It was built based on PERC cells. It has a power of 380 W and an efficiency of 21.68%. (also the name of the specific model was not given).

On the manufacturer’s official website, we can find a data sheet for the TOPCon M10-144 CAM-CAM series, which seems to include the module that took 24th place in the latest TaiyangNews ranking.

Panel with a power of 580 W and an efficiency of 22.38%. it has dimensions of 2285 x 1134 x 30 mm and weighs 32 kg. The open circuit voltage (Voc) is 51.21 V and the short-circuit current (Isc) is 13.87 A. The value of the power temperature coefficient for the module in question was determined by the Turkish manufacturer at -0.30 percent/degree. Celsius.

The M10-144 CAM-CAM module with a power of 580W is covered by a 12-year product warranty and a 30-year performance warranty, which at the end of the period is to be no less than 86.53%. initial value.
