Smart Insights (data-driven)
  • At 21.9% efficiency, this panel is 0.6pp below the TOPCon 450-500W median of 22.5%
  • 218.9 W/m² power density is 6.3 W/m² below TOPCon 450-500W median (225.2 W/m²) - requires larger installation area
  • At -0.29%/°C, hot weather performance is typical for TOPCon 450-500W panels
  • Weight of 28.4 kg is 4.4 kg above TOPCon 450-500W median (24.0 kg) - verify structural support
  • Bifacial design (80% factor) captures reflected light - adds 4-12% yield on ground-mount or white roof

Show series description

The Canadian Solar TOPBiHiKu6 series is designed to maximize energy gain in installations where every square meter counts and ensure stable production year after year. The key advantage of this lineup lies in combining N-type TOPCon cells with a bifacial structure, enabling the real utilization of reflected light from the ground surface—particularly in ground-mounted PV farms on light-colored surfaces, membrane roofs, or with appropriately selected mounting infrastructure. These modules focus on low degradation (without typical LID losses related to boron) and resistance to phenomena such as PID, translating to more predictable yields and lower long-term operational risks. The application of multi-busbar architecture improves current collection and minimizes the impact of micro-cracks, thereby enhancing reliability in challenging conditions. The TOPBiHiKu6 series is an excellent choice for PV farm investors and the C&I segment, seeking to reduce LCOE and system costs thanks to its high power density and robust module durability.
