What it means on a roof
Thirty years of production
Declared first-year losses, with 0.40% a year afterwards assumed for both panels, at 1,200 kWh/kWp a year
Same temp coeff. for both panels (-0.350 %/°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: DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455W or DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450?
According to our database: DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455 W has higher module efficiency (21.08% vs 20.85%). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455W and DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450?
DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455 W has a module efficiency of 21.08%, while DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450 is 20.85%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455W use vs DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450?
DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455 W uses PERC cells; DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450 uses PERC. 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 DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455W and DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450?
DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-455 W has a 25 years power warranty; DAH Solar DHM-60X10/FS(BW)-450 has a 25 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.
