The Hansol TD-AN3 series consists of monocrystalline photovoltaic modules based on a 72-cell array, designed for installations requiring high reliability and long-term energy production stability. A key innovation of this series is the Anti-PID technology - implemented at both the cell and encapsulation levels - which effectively eliminates potential-induced degradation (PID), protecting the investment's profitability for decades. The modules are designed for operation in 1500V systems, resulting in real cost savings on Balance of System (BoS) components and a reduced overall investment cost. Exceptional mechanical durability, certified by IEC, TUV, and UL, makes the TD-AN3 ideal for use in harsh climatic conditions, including heavy snowfall and strong winds. Optional compatibility with floating PV systems (thanks to the back side that prevents moisture penetration) opens up possibilities for mounting on reservoirs and water bodies. Certification for salt spray resistance (IEC 61701, level 6) makes these panels ideal for marine and industrial environments. The series is covered by a 25-year linear performance warranty, making it a reliable choice for investors and developers seeking long-term, predictable returns on investment.

What owners get
Dual-layer Anti-PID technology

PID protection applied simultaneously at both the cell and encapsulant levels is above the market standard. In 1500V systems, the voltage differential between the frame and cells is significantly higher than in 1000V architectures, amplifying PID risk — TD-AN3's dual barrier directly addresses this, protecting long-term energy yield across the full asset lifetime.

1500V DC system compatibility

Certified 1500V system voltage allows designers to configure longer strings (more modules per MPPT input), reducing cabling runs, DC combiners, and junction boxes. BoS cost savings from 1500V architecture over 1000V are typically estimated at 5–10% of CAPEX, improving project LCOE.

IEC 61701 salt mist level 6 certification

Level 6 is the highest tier in the IEC 61701 salt mist corrosion standard. Combined with triple certification (IEC, TUV, UL), the series is a reliable choice for coastal, harbor, and industrial sites where corrosion-driven degradation is the primary portfolio risk factor.

Floating PV deployment capability

The moisture-blocking rear surface enables installation on water bodies. Floating PV sees growing demand due to the water-cooling effect — modules typically operate 5–15% more efficiently than ground-mount during summer peaks — while eliminating land-use conflicts.

Manufacturer credibility: BNEF Tier-1, since 1965

Hansol Technics held BNEF Tier-1 status (Q4 2024 / Q1 2025) at ~600 MW/year production capacity. Operating since 1965, the company's long operational history reduces orphaned-warranty risk over the 25-year linear power guarantee period — a key bankability parameter for project finance.

Trade-offs
Discontinued series

The TD-AN3 series is marked as discontinued. This limits the availability of replacement modules for mechanical failures, complicates system expansion with identical panels (string power mismatch), and may hamper post-warranty service once distributors exhaust their remaining inventory.

Efficiency below current peer comparables

The series peaks at 18.05% efficiency, while peer comparable Corab Encor reaches 19.27% (+1.22 pp) at the same 360 Wp max power, and Lina Energy LE MEPV reaches 18.44% (+0.39 pp). The gap versus Corab means TD-AN3 requires approximately 6–7% more rooftop or ground area to achieve the same installed capacity.

Older-generation mono-crystalline cell technology

Since 2024, TOPCon accounts for over 66% of global new PV module production capacity, delivering lower LID/LeTID and a better temperature coefficient (~–0.28%/°C) compared to conventional mono (~–0.37%/°C). TD-AN3 does not benefit from these advances, resulting in a measurable annual yield disadvantage at elevated operating temperatures.

Monofacial construction — no bifacial gain

The non-bifacial design (is_bifacial: false) forfeits rear-side irradiance capture. Standard bifacial gain ranges from 5–30% depending on ground albedo — in ground-mount and floating PV applications where albedo is high (light water surface), the monofacial construction represents a quantifiable energy yield loss compared to newer bifacial series.

Notes from the database
  • Efficiency of 17.3% is 4.5pp below the database median (21.8%)
  • Power density of 173.0 W/m² is 45.1 W/m² below database median (218.1 W/m²) - needs more roof space
  • Temperature coefficient of -0.45%/°C is 0.15pp worse than database median (-0.30%/°C) - higher losses in summer heat
  • At 22.5 kg, this panel is 4.0 kg lighter than database median (26.5 kg) - easier handling during installation
  • Ranked #13383 out of 14005 panels for efficiency in the database
