Questions about this pairing
Which panel is better: Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ or Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh?
According to our database: Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ has higher module efficiency (22.50% vs 21.40%); Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ tolerates heat better (temp coeff -0.290%/°C vs -0.340%/°C). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh?
Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ has a module efficiency of 22.50%, while Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh is 21.40%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ use vs Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh?
Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ uses TOPCon cells; Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh 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 Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh?
Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ has a 30 years power warranty; Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh 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.
Are Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh bifacial panels?
Suntech STP700S-D66-Nsh+ is bifacial (captures light from both faces); Suntech STP665S-D66/Wmh is monofacial. Bifacial panels work best on ground mounts or raised structures with a light-coloured surface underneath.
