This status is a prerequisite for non-recourse financing on commercial projects and utility-scale PV plants. - **Kiwa PVEL Top Performer – 5 Consecutive Years** - GAMMA series modules (alongside the VEGA series) have been independently certified as Top Performers in the annual Kiwa PVEL PV Module Reliability Scorecard every year since 2019, including the 2024 edition. This certification confirms proven resistance to LeTID/PID degradation, moisture ingress, and mechanical load — data points material to insurers and project finance investors. - **Broad Selection: 24 Variants, PERC and TOPCon** - The series spans 24 variants ranging from 355 to 580 Wp across both cell technologies — P-type PERC and N-type TOPCon — allowing a single product portfolio to serve prosumer rooftop installations (lower wattages, PERC) as well as utility-scale projects (560–580 Wp, TOPCon) without requiring a supplier change. - **Power Warranty Up to 30 Years** - TOPCon variants in the GAMMA series carry a 30-year linear power warranty — five years beyond the standard 25-year term offered by peer comparables such as the ZNShine ZXM7-UHLD144 and EGing PV STAR Pro. The extended warranty horizon directly reduces LCOE in financial models for utility-scale PV plants. - **Segment-Leading Efficiency: Up to 22.45%** - The highest-efficiency variants in the GAMMA series achieve 22.45% — matching the Emmvee Titanium Duo (22.45%) and EGing PV STAR Pro (22.45%), and exceeding the ZNShine ZXM7-UHLD144 (22.44%). High module efficiency directly reduces the roof area or land footprint required for a given system capacity. ## Cons - **Monofacial-Only Design** - The entire GAMMA series is monofacial — no bifacial variants are available — while direct competitor Emmvee Titanium Duo (identical 22.45% efficiency, same 580 Wp peak power) offers a bifacial glass-glass configuration with a typical rear-side energy gain of 5–15% in ground-mount and flat-roof installations over a high-albedo surface. For utility-scale PV projects where ground reflectance exceeds 15%, the absence of a bifacial option translates to a measurably lower annual energy yield compared to competing modules at a similar price point. ## About this series The Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ is a monofacial module designed for stable and predictable energy production - whether on residential rooftops or in larger commercial and utility-scale installations. It combines **PERC monocrystalline cells** with a **half-cut** architecture, which helps minimize power losses under partial shading and enhances the module's operational safety in typical mounting conditions. The use of a **multi-busbar MBB design** improves current collection and resistance to microcracks, resulting in long-term reliability. The GAMMA series modules are also optimized for ease of installation - available frame and backsheet options simplify adaptation to roof aesthetics and design standards. This makes it an excellent choice for installers and EPCs who want to **reduce project risk** and simplify component selection, while also providing end-users with a worry-free operating experience and stable energy yields for years to come. ## Notable figures - Module efficiency of 21.9% is 0.6pp below average for \*\*TOPCon 550-600W\*\* panels (median: 22.4%) - Power density of 218.7 W/m² is 5.7 W/m² below \*\*TOPCon 550-600W\*\* median (224.4 W/m²) - needs more roof space - Temperature coefficient of -0.30%/°C matches the \*\*TOPCon 550-600W\*\* median - Weight of 28.9 kg (2.3 kg below \*\*TOPCon 550-600W\*\* median of 31.2 kg) allows easier transport and roof mounting - Bifaciality factor of 80% can add 4-12% extra yield with reflective mounting surface ## Questions ### What cell technology is used in the Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ and how does it differ from PERC? The GAMMA SERIES™ utilizes N-type TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) cells, representing a significant advancement over conventional PERC technology. TOPCon delivers higher energy conversion efficiency, a better temperature coefficient — meaning less power loss on hot days — and lower first-year degradation rates. The result is greater energy yield over the entire lifetime of the installation. ### What warranty is offered on Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ panels? The manufacturer provides a 12-year product warranty covering physical defects and workmanship, along with a 30-year linear power output warranty. This ensures that the modules maintain a specified performance level for three decades. Boviet Solar holds Tier 1 status as rated by BNEF and consistently earns Top Performer recognition in PVEL testing, which substantiates the credibility of these commitments. ### What is the maximum power output of a Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ panel, and is it suitable for residential rooftop installation? The highest available power rating in the GAMMA SERIES™ is 580 Wp. The modules are well-suited for pitched residential rooftops as well as larger commercial and utility-scale installations. The half-cut cell architecture combined with MBB (multi-busbar) technology minimizes power losses under partial shading conditions — a key advantage on roofs with chimneys, dormers, or antennas. ### Are Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ panels bifacial? No — the GAMMA SERIES™ consists of monofacial modules, meaning they collect light from the front side only. If bifacial technology is a priority, the Vega series from the same manufacturer is worth considering. For a typical rooftop installation, however, a monofacial module is fully sufficient and is often more cost-effective to purchase and straightforward to install. ### Where are Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ panels manufactured, and is the manufacturer reliable? Boviet Solar is headquartered and operates its primary manufacturing facilities in Vietnam, and since 2025 has also launched a factory in Greenville, North Carolina, USA. The company holds Tier 1 status according to Bloomberg NEF, is highly rated by Wood Mackenzie and Sinovoltaics, and has repeatedly earned Top Performer recognition in independent Kiwa PVEL testing. It is an established manufacturer with over a decade of industry experience. ### Is the Boviet Solar GAMMA SERIES™ still available for purchase? Yes, the GAMMA SERIES™ is actively available for purchase. The modules are manufactured using current N-type TOPCon technology across a power range of 560–580 Wp. Boviet Solar is expanding its production capacity, so availability of models in this series is expected to remain stable for both smaller prosumer installations and large-scale EPC projects. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/4Boviet-Solar_TopConGamma-Series_Monofacial_560-580W_08-17-2024-3d39b5d7b9ed.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-560M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-560m) | 560 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.9 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-555M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-555m) | 555 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.7 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVHL-550M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvhl-550m) | 550 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.5 pp | | [JA Solar JAT60S40-540/LR](https://comparepv.com/panel/ja-solar-jat60s40-540-lr) | 540 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.5 pp | | [Gokin GK-5-60HG-540M](https://comparepv.com/panel/gokin-gk-5-60hg-540m) | 540 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.5 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM545-54QL6-DV-F1-EU](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm545-54ql6-dv-f1-eu) | 545 W | -20 W, cooler, +2.4 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-545M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-545m) | 545 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.3 pp | | [Boviet Solar BVM7612M-530-H-HC](https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-530-h-hc) | 530 W | Hotter, -1.5 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [Boviet Solar BVM7612M-535-H-HC](https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-535-h-hc) | 535 W | Hotter, -1.3 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [Boviet Solar BVM7612M-540-H-HC](https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-540-h-hc) | 540 W | Hotter, -1.1 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [Boviet Solar BVM7612M-545-H-HC](https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-545-h-hc) | 545 W | Hotter, -0.9 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [Boviet Solar BVM7612M-550-H-HC](https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-550-h-hc) | 550 W | Hotter, -0.7 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [Boviet Solar BVM7612M-560-H-HC](https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-560-h-hc) | 560 W | Very close match | | [AIKO AIKO-A650-MAE72Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a650-mae72mw) | 650 W | +85 W, cooler, +3.3 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A645-MAE72Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a645-mae72mw) | 645 W | +80 W, cooler, +3.1 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A640-MAE72Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a640-mae72mw) | 640 W | +75 W, cooler, +2.9 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/boviet-solar-bvm7612m-565-h-hc Not in this file, on the page: a thirty-year output simulator, a bifacial gain calculator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
