Questions about this pairing
Which panel is better: Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ or Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+?
According to our database: Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ has higher module efficiency (23.70% vs 22.86%); Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ tolerates heat better (temp coeff -0.280%/°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 Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+?
Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ has a module efficiency of 22.86%, while Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ is 23.70%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ use vs Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+?
Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ uses TOPCon cells; Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ 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 STP710S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+?
Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ has a 30 years power warranty; Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ 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 Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ bifacial panels?
Both Suntech STP710S-D66-Nsh+ and Suntech STP735S-D66-Nsh+ 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.
