Questions about this pairing

Which panel is better: AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db or Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D?
According to our database: AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db has higher module efficiency (23.30% vs 22.50%); AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db tolerates heat better (temp coeff -0.260%/°C vs -0.280%/°C). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db and Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D?
AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db has a module efficiency of 23.30%, while Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D is 22.50%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db use vs Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D?
AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db uses Back Contact cells; Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D uses TOPCon. Modern n-type technologies (TOPCon, HJT, BC) typically deliver higher efficiency and lower degradation compared to older PERC (p-type) cells.
What is the warranty on AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db and Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D?
AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db has a 30 years power warranty; Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D has a 30 years power warranty. The power warranty guarantees a minimum percentage of rated output at the end of the warranty period (typically 80-87%). Product (materials) warranties are usually shorter.
Are AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db and Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D bifacial panels?
Horay Solar HS450TC-MHC-D is bifacial (captures light from both faces); AIKO AIKO-455-MAH54Db is monofacial. Bifacial panels work best on ground mounts or raised structures with a light-coloured surface underneath.
