According to our database: **Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (**735 W** bin)** has higher module efficiency (**23.66%** vs **23.38%**). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture. ### What is the efficiency of Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV and Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (735W bin)? **Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV** has a module efficiency of **23.38%**, while **Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (**735 W** bin)** is **23.66%**. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited. ### What cell technology does Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV use vs Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (735W bin)? **Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV** uses **TOPCon** cells; **Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (**735 W** bin)** 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 JKM520-54HL4M-BDV and Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (735W bin)? **Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV** has a **30 years** power warranty; **Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (**735 W** bin)** 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 JKM520-54HL4M-BDV and Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (735W bin) bifacial panels? Both **Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV** and **Jinko Solar JKM710-735N-66HL5-BDV-Z3-EU (**735 W** bin)** 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. ## Related comparisons - [Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV vs Jinko Solar JKM525-54HL4M-BDV](https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm525-54hl4m-bdv) - One difference: module efficiency - [Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV vs Jinko Solar JKM515-54HL4M-BDV](https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm515-54hl4m-bdv) - One difference: module efficiency - [Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV vs Jinko Solar JKM510-54HL4M-BDV](https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm510-54hl4m-bdv) - 3 differences, the largest is module efficiency - [Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV vs Jinko Solar JKM505-54HL4M-BDV](https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm505-54hl4m-bdv) - 3 differences, the largest is module efficiency - [Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV vs Jinko Solar JKM500-54HL4M-BDV](https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm500-54hl4m-bdv) - 4 differences, the largest is module efficiency - [Jinko Solar JKM520-54HL4M-BDV vs Jinko Solar JKM495-54HL4M-BDV](https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm495-54hl4m-bdv) - 5 differences, the largest is module efficiency --- Source: https://comparepv.com/compare/jinkosolar-jkm520-54hl4m-bdv/jinkosolar-jkm710-735n-66hl5-bdv-z3-eu-735w-bin Not in this file, on the page: the thirty-year yield curve year by year at a cell temperature you pick and a written summary generated on request.
