Questions about this pairing

Which panel is better: Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU or Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU?
According to our database: Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU has higher module efficiency (23.52% vs 23.34%); Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU tolerates heat better (temp coeff -0.260%/°C vs -0.290%/°C). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU and Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU?
Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU has a module efficiency of 23.52%, while Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU is 23.34%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU use vs Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU?
Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU uses TOPCon cells; Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU 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 Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU and Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU?
Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU has a 30 years power warranty; Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU 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 Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU and Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU bifacial panels?
Jinko Solar JKM725N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU is bifacial (captures light from both faces); Jinko Solar JKM470N-48QL6-DB-F2-EU is monofacial. Bifacial panels work best on ground mounts or raised structures with a light-coloured surface underneath.
