The Titanium White series brings TOPCon cell performance to installers and investors who do not need the premium of a glass-glass bifacial module. Instead of a dual-glass, bifacial build, it uses a conventional glass-to-backsheet design with a white rear laminate, which keeps weight and cost down while preserving the high efficiency of N-type TOPCon cells. Half-cut, multi-busbar cells (182x91 mm) reduce resistive losses and improve current collection even under partial shading. The panel comes in several cell-count variants (108, 120, 132, 144), making it easy to match to small pitched residential roofs as well as large commercial arrays. The manufacturer highlights PID resistance and a robust build with an anodized aluminum frame rated for snow loads up to 5400 Pa and hail impact. Low first-year and annual power degradation supports stable energy output over the module's lifetime, which together with a low LCOE shortens payback periods. The series pairs proven TOPCon cell technology with a simpler, more affordable mechanical construction, making it a sensible choice wherever price-to-performance matters more than the all-black look of a bifacial glass module.

What owners get
Top-tier cell efficiency for the segment

Peak efficiency of 22.45% matches EGing PV STAR Pro (22.45%) and exceeds ZNShine ZXM7-UHLD144 (22.44%) and Silfab Commercial NTC (22.40%), placing Titanium White among the leading 580 Wp TOPCon panels on the market.

Lower cost without sacrificing TOPCon technology

The glass-backsheet construction instead of the pricier glass-glass design retains the high efficiency of N-type TOPCon cells while reducing module weight and cost, improving the price-to-performance ratio versus comparable dual-glass panels.

Flexible power range from 415 to 580 Wp

With 20 variants across 108, 120, 132, and 144-cell configurations, the series fits both small pitched residential roofs and large commercial installations without switching manufacturers.

Half-cut, multi-busbar cell design

Splitting 182x91 mm cells into halves with an increased busbar count reduces resistive losses and improves energy harvest under partial shading, translating into higher real-world yield in urban and industrial settings.

Strong mechanical load resistance

The anodized aluminum frame withstands up to 5400 Pa of snow load, exceeding the standard 5400 Pa/2400 Pa rating offered by many budget manufacturers, making it suitable for high-snowfall regions.

Trade-offs
No BNEF Tier-1 bankability status

Emmvee is not listed as a Bloomberg New Energy Finance Tier-1 manufacturer, which can complicate financing for commercial projects with some banks and EPCs — unlike comparable series from Silfab or ZNShine, whose manufacturers have established bankability.

Shorter product warranty than some peers

The 12-year product warranty is shorter than the 15-25 years now offered by some premium 580 Wp TOPCon manufacturers, even though the 25-year power warranty is in line with market standards.

Common questions

6 answered
How does the Emmvee Titanium White series differ from bifacial glass-glass panels?
Titanium White uses a classic glass-backsheet construction with a white rear laminate instead of a dual-glass bifacial design. This makes the panel lighter and cheaper to produce while still delivering high efficiency from N-type TOPCon cells. It does not capture energy from the rear side like bifacial modules, but it offers a strong price-to-performance ratio where aesthetics and rear-side gain aren't the priority.
What is the maximum power output of Emmvee Titanium White panels?
Titanium White panels reach up to 580 Wp depending on the selected cell-count variant. The manufacturer offers configurations with 108, 120, 132, or 144 cells, making it easy to match the module to a small residential roof or a large commercial installation.
What warranty comes with Emmvee Titanium White panels?
The manufacturer provides a 12-year product warranty and a 25-year power output warranty. Thanks to the low first-year and annual degradation rate of the TOPCon cells, the panel maintains stable energy production throughout its service life, supporting a predictable return on investment.
Can Titanium White panels handle heavy snow loads?
Yes, the modules feature an anodized aluminum frame rated for snow loads up to 5400 Pa and hail impact resistance. This makes the series well suited to climates with heavy winter precipitation, whether installed on pitched residential roofs or ground-mount commercial systems.
Is TOPCon cell technology worth choosing over standard PERC?
Yes, the N-type TOPCon cells used in Titanium White deliver higher efficiency and lower long-term power degradation than older PERC technology. The half-cut, multi-busbar cell design also reduces current losses and improves energy harvest under partial shading, such as from a chimney or roof vent.
Who manufactures Titanium White panels, and is it a Tier 1 supplier?
The Titanium White series is manufactured by Emmvee, based in India. The manufacturer is not currently listed as Tier 1, which is worth factoring into long-term warranty risk assessment, though the module's build quality and TOPCon cell technology align with market standards used by larger manufacturers.
