What it means on a roof
Thirty years of production
Declared first-year losses, with 0.40% a year afterwards 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 TWMNF-66HD720XX or Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX?
According to our database: Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX has higher module efficiency (23.20% vs 23.00%). See the full spec comparison and 30-year energy simulation above for a complete picture.
What is the efficiency of Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX and Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX?
Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX has a module efficiency of 23.20%, while Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX is 23.00%. Higher efficiency means more electricity from the same roof area - useful when space is limited.
What cell technology does Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX use vs Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX?
Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX uses N-type cells; Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX uses N-type. 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 TWMNF-66HD720XX and Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX?
Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX has a 30 years power warranty; Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX 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 TWMNF-66HD720XX and Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX bifacial panels?
Both Tongwei TWMNF-66HD720XX and Tongwei TWMNF-66HD715XX 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.
