New orders are fulfilled exclusively from remaining warehouse stock, creating a risk of limited module availability for system expansions or replacement of damaged units. - **PERC vs. TOPCon: Higher Annual Degradation** - P-type PERC technology results in LID-related first-year degradation of ~2% and ~0.55%/yr thereafter, guaranteeing ≥84.8% power after 25 years. Newer TOPCon modules (e.g., Jinko Tiger Neo 3.0) declare ~1% year-1 degradation and ~0.40%/yr subsequently, translating to approximately 5-6 percentage points more remaining power at end-of-warranty - a meaningful lifetime LCOE difference. - **Efficiency Below Peer Leaders** - The maximum module efficiency of 22.07% falls short of the listed peer comparables: Horay Solar HS 191R-132 TC-D Basin and HS 191R-132 TC Basin, both rated at 570 Wp and 23.0% efficiency. The ~0.93 pp gap translates to greater roof area required to achieve the same installed capacity. ## About this series The Jinko Solar Tiger Pro 72HC (MBB HC Technology) series was designed for reliable energy production in locations where the predictability of energy yields and resilience to typical operational issues are crucial. The application of **heterojunction (HC) technology** improves the module's performance under partial shading-power drops are less severe, which is significant on roofs with chimneys, window wells, or installations near trees. The construction also employs **Multi Busbar (MBB)**, or multi-string current collection-this translates to better light capture, lower resistive losses, and higher reliability over time. An additional distinguishing feature is **Tiling Ribbon (TR)**, which minimizes gaps between cells, supporting efficient use of the module's surface area. In practice, this series helps mitigate the risk of **hot-spots** and energy yield losses in challenging operating conditions, which is appreciated by installers in C&I projects and investors in PV farms. It is an excellent choice for installations where low energy costs and stable operation over years are a priority. ## Notable figures - Efficiency of 22.1% is 0.8pp above the \*\*PERC 550-600W\*\* median (21.3%) - Power density of 220.7 W/m² packs 7.8 W/m² more into the same footprint vs \*\*PERC 550-600W\*\* median (212.9 W/m²) - At -0.35%/°C, hot weather performance is typical for \*\*PERC 550-600W\*\* panels - Weight of 27.0 kg (3.8 kg below \*\*PERC 550-600W\*\* median of 30.8 kg) allows easier transport and roof mounting - In the top 44% for efficiency among all PERC panels ## Questions ### Is the Jinko Solar Tiger Pro 72HC series still available for purchase? The Tiger Pro 72HC (MBB HC Technology) series has been discontinued and is no longer actively distributed by Jinko Solar. If you need modules of the same class, consider newer Jinko series such as Tiger Neo, which offer higher efficiency and updated cell technology. Residual stock may still be available through some distributors. ### What warranty does the Jinko Solar Tiger Pro 72HC come with? Jinko Solar provides a 12-year product warranty covering manufacturing defects and materials, along with a 25-year linear power output warranty. Over those 25 years, the module is guaranteed to maintain power above the specified threshold - typically with an annual degradation rate of around 0.45% after the first year. Warranty claims are handled by Jinko Solar as a Tier 1 manufacturer. ### How does half-cut (HC) cell technology improve performance under partial shading? Half-cut technology splits each PERC cell into two halves, reducing power losses when part of the module is shaded by a chimney, dormer, or nearby trees. The upper and lower halves of an HC module operate electrically independent, meaning shading one half does not block the entire string. In practice, this results in higher annual energy yield on complex rooftops compared to full-cell modules. ### Are the Tiger Pro 72HC panels rated at 570 Wp suitable for a residential sloped roof? The 72-cell modules in this series measure approximately 2278×1134 mm and weigh around 27 kg, making them larger than typical residential panels. Installation on a sloped roof is possible but requires a robust racking structure and an experienced crew. The series was designed for commercial and utility-scale PV installations where the larger format lowers the cost per watt. For residential applications, a more compact 60-cell format is generally preferred. ### What is Multi Busbar (MBB) technology and does it actually improve module performance? Multi Busbar replaces the traditional 3-5 thick busbars with 9-12 thinner ones. More busbars shorten the current path within the cell, reducing resistive losses and improving the capture of internally reflected light. The real-world result is higher power output for the same module footprint and better long-term reliability - damage to a single busbar has a smaller impact on overall cell performance compared to conventional designs. ### How do Jinko Solar Tiger Pro 72HC panels perform in cold temperatures and overcast conditions? The temperature coefficient of Pmax for this series is approximately -0.35%/°C. This means that as temperature drops below 25°C (STC), module output increases - cold, sunny winter days can therefore boost energy yield. Under diffuse light on overcast days, PERC modules with MBB and half-cut technology outperform older cell technologies, although like any monocrystalline panel they perform best under direct irradiance. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/148235118065d1b9a15142a-2c05aabfadd2.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-560M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-560m) | 560 W | Cooler, +2.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-555M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-555m) | 555 W | Cooler, +2.5 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVHL-550M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvhl-550m) | 550 W | Cooler, lighter, +2.3 pp | | [JA Solar JAT60S40-540/LR](https://comparepv.com/panel/ja-solar-jat60s40-540-lr) | 540 W | Cooler, +2.3 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Gokin GK-5-60HG-540M](https://comparepv.com/panel/gokin-gk-5-60hg-540m) | 540 W | Cooler, +2.3 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Jinko Solar JKM545-54QL6-DV-F1-EU](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm545-54ql6-dv-f1-eu) | 545 W | Cooler, +2.2 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-545M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-545m) | 545 W | Cooler, +2.1 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Jinko Solar JKM525M-72HL4-TV](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm525m-72hl4-tv) | 525 W | -45 W, -1.7 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Jinko Solar JS182MHC144-525](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-js182mhc144-525) | 525 W | -45 W, -1.8 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM530M-72HL4-TV](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm530m-72hl4-tv) | 530 W | -40 W, -1.5 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [Jinko Solar JS182MHC144-530](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-js182mhc144-530) | 530 W | -40 W, -1.6 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM535M-72HL4-(V)-F3-EN](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm535m-72hl4-v-f3-en) | 535 W | -35 W, heavier, -1.4 pp | | [Jinko Solar JKM535M-72HL4-BDVP](https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm535m-72hl4-bdvp) | 535 W | Heavier, -1.3 pp, +5 yr warranty | | [AIKO AIKO-A650-MAE72Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a650-mae72mw) | 650 W | +80 W, cooler, +3.1 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A645-MAE72Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a645-mae72mw) | 645 W | +75 W, cooler, +2.9 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A640-MAE72Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a640-mae72mw) | 640 W | +70 W, cooler, +2.7 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/jinko-solar-jkm550-570m-72hl4-v-f5-en-jkm570m-72hl4-jkm570m-72hl4-v Not in this file, on the page: the I-V and temperature curves lifted from the manufacturer's datasheet, a thirty-year output simulator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
