What it means on a roof

Thirty years of production
A 1.0% first-year loss then 0.40% a year, assumed for both panels, 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: Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial or Tongwei TWMNH-66HD?
According to our database: Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial has higher module efficiency (23.00% vs 22.95%). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial and Tongwei TWMNH-66HD?
Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial has a module efficiency of 23.00%, while Tongwei TWMNH-66HD is 22.95%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial use vs Tongwei TWMNH-66HD?
Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial uses TOPCon cells; Tongwei TWMNH-66HD 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 Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial and Tongwei TWMNH-66HD?
Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial has a 30 years power warranty; Tongwei TWMNH-66HD 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 Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial and Tongwei TWMNH-66HD bifacial panels?
Tongwei TWMNH-66HD is bifacial (captures light from both faces); Tongwei TNC G12R-66 Monofacial is monofacial. Bifacial panels work best on ground mounts or raised structures with a light-coloured surface underneath.
