What it means on a roof

Thirty years of production
Each panel's own declared degradation curve, at 1,200 kWh/kWp a year
Same temp coeff. for both panels (-0.260 %/°C), so a warmer roof scales both curves by the same factor: the totals fall together and neither panel gains on the other.

Questions about this pairing

Which panel is better: Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 or Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665?
According to our database: Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 has higher module efficiency (24.80% vs 24.60%). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 and Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665?
Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 has a module efficiency of 24.80%, while Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665 is 24.60%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 use vs Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665?
Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 uses TOPCon cells; Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665 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 Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 and Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665?
Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 has a 30 years power warranty; Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665 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 Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 and Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665 bifacial panels?
Both Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-670 and Astronergy CHSM66RN(DG)/F-BQ-665 are bifacial - they capture reflected light from the ground, which can add 5-15% more annual energy on ground-mount or elevated rooftop installations with a light surface beneath.
