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 (-0.280 %/°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: Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500W or Hanersun HN21N-66HT730W?
According to our database: Hanersun HN21N-66HT730 W has higher module efficiency (23.50% vs 22.50%). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500W and Hanersun HN21N-66HT730W?
Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500 W has a module efficiency of 22.50%, while Hanersun HN21N-66HT730 W is 23.50%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500W use vs Hanersun HN21N-66HT730W?
Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500 W uses TOPCon cells; Hanersun HN21N-66HT730 W uses N-type. 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 Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500W and Hanersun HN21N-66HT730W?
Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500 W has a 30 years power warranty; Hanersun HN21N-66HT730 W 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 Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500W and Hanersun HN21N-66HT730W bifacial panels?
Both Hanersun HN21RN-54HT500 W and Hanersun HN21N-66HT730 W 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.
