The module relies on **bifacial half-cut cells with MBB technology**, capturing additional energy reflected off the ground without requiring any changes to standard mounting practices used for monofacial panels. Its **glass-glass** construction with a black backsheet and **black frame paired with a black-grid rear glass** eliminates visible stripes and uneven patterns, delivering a uniform, elegant look that is especially valued on pitched residential roofs where appearance matters just as much as energy yield. The panel also stands out for its **long-term power stability** and very low annual power degradation, translating into consistently high output across its entire service life. Backed by a **long-term product and performance warranty** and quality oversight from the manufacturer's Italian headquarters, the Silk Nova Duetto All Black is built for investors seeking a predictable, low LCOE alongside a durable, visually refined solar installation. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/FuturaSun_96_450-460W_Silk-Nova-Duetto-All-Black_EN-baa7887103dd.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [Jinko Solar JKM500T-48HL6M-DB](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm500t-48hl6m-db) | 500 W | +50 W, cooler, +2.5 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A495-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a495-mce54mw) | 495 W | +45 W, lighter, +2.3 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM495T-48HL6M-DB](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm495t-48hl6m-db) | 495 W | +45 W, cooler, +2.2 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM490T-48HL6M-DB](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm490t-48hl6m-db) | 490 W | +40 W, cooler, +2.0 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A490-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a490-mce54mw) | 490 W | +40 W, lighter, +2.0 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-500M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-500m) | 500 W | +50 W, cooler, +2.0 pp | | [Talesun CIPRO-TN9C54M-500W](https://comparepv.com/panel/talesun-cipro-tn9c54m-500w) | 500 W | +50 W, lighter, +2.0 pp | | [FuturaSun FU 400 M Silk Nova Orange Duetto](https://comparepv.com/panel/futurasun-fu-400-m-silk-nova-orange-duetto) | 400 W | -50 W, -2.5 pp | | [FuturaSun FU 405 M Silk Nova Green Duetto](https://comparepv.com/panel/futurasun-fu-405-m) | 405 W | -45 W, -2.2 pp | | [FuturaSun FU 410 M Silk Nova Silver](https://comparepv.com/panel/futurasun-fu-410-m-silk-nova-silver) | 410 W | Lighter, -2.0 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [FuturaSun FU 440 M Silk Rhino All Black](https://comparepv.com/panel/futurasun-fu-440-m) | 440 W | Heavier, -0.5 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [FuturaSun FU445MV Silk Rhino](https://comparepv.com/panel/futurasun-fu445mv-silk-rhino) | 445 W | Heavier, -0.2 pp, -5 yr warranty | | [Jinko Solar JKM510T-48HL6M-DB](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm510t-48hl6m-db) | 510 W | +60 W, cooler, +3.0 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM505T-48HL6M-DB](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm505t-48hl6m-db) | 505 W | +55 W, cooler, +2.8 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-510M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-510m) | 510 W | +60 W, cooler, +2.5 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-505M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-505m) | 505 W | +55 W, cooler, +2.2 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/futurasun-fu-450-mv Not in this file, on the page: a thirty-year output simulator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
