The extra 5 years is a meaningful advantage for facade investments with long payback horizons. - **N-type TOPCon cells** - N-type TOPCon cells, rather than older PERC technology, reduce light-induced degradation (LID) and maintain efficiency better at elevated operating temperatures, translating into higher real-world energy yield in facade applications where modules often run hotter. - **Minimal efficiency loss despite coloring** - Efficiency of 17.92-18.44% is only marginally below comparable standard black modules in the same power class (Bisol Spectrum 18.00%, Hansol TD-AN3 18.05%), whereas independent research shows colored BIPV coatings typically cut output by 10-18% versus black panels. Lina Energy's coloring technology keeps this loss well below the typical market figure. - **Aesthetic architectural integration** - Uniform coloring mimicking ceramic roof tiles or facade materials allows installation in heritage-protected zones and premium buildings where standard black panels are architecturally unacceptable - a segment where most peer comparables (Corab, Hansol, Bisol) offer no equivalent solution. - **20-year product warranty** - Standard product warranty in the premium segment is typically 12-15 years; the offered 20 years places this series above typical market practice and approaches the terms offered by tier-1 manufacturers on standard modules. ## Cons - **Efficiency below top peer** - Maximum efficiency of 18.44% is noticeably lower than Corab Encor EC360M-6-120FB (19.27%) at the same 360 Wp power class - a gap of roughly 0.83 percentage points, meaning less energy is generated per unit of installed area, which matters where roof or facade surface is limited. - **No bifacial variant** - The series is monofacial only (is\_bifacial: false), while some colored BIPV competitors (including comparable Eurener modules in the same class) are already introducing bifacial variants that capture additional yield from reflected light - an option not available in this series. ## About this series The Lina Energy LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV panel series is a breakthrough approach to aesthetics in photovoltaics, eliminating the dilemma between efficiency and building appearance. Thanks to advanced color coating technology, these modules become an integral part of the facade or roof, rather than just an added component. The use of **N-type TOPCon cells** combined with coloring technology allows for high efficiency while achieving unique colors. This solves the problem of design constraints for homes in conservation zones and modern office buildings, where traditional black panels disrupt the architectural vision. **Building-Integrated Photovoltaics (BIPV)** from Lina Energy allows for full creative freedom, offering shades that perfectly imitate ceramic roof tiles or modern facade materials. The product is aimed at premium investors and architects looking for **energy-generating building materials** that stand out with discretion and elegance. They are distinguished from the competition by exceptional color uniformity and high resistance to light-induced degradation, which guarantees stable power for decades. It is an **aesthetic alternative to classic modules** that turns an ordinary wall into an active solar power plant without visual compromises. ## Notable figures - Efficiency of 17.9% is 0.5pp below the \*\*BIPV 0-400W\*\* median (18.4%) - 179.2 W/m² power density is 5.2 W/m² below \*\*BIPV 0-400W\*\* median (184.4 W/m²) - requires larger installation area - At -0.35%/°C, hot weather performance is typical for \*\*BIPV 0-400W\*\* panels - In the top 94% for efficiency among all BIPV panels ## Questions ### What color options does the Lina Energy LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV series offer, and can it be used in heritage conservation zones? The LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV series features shades that closely replicate ceramic roof tiles and modern facade materials. The uniform, non-reflective appearance makes these modules a strong candidate for heritage conservation zones where conventional black panels would not be approved. Final acceptance is always subject to the local heritage authority's decision. ### What is the peak power output and efficiency of the LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV panel? The LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV reaches a peak power of 360 Wp with a module efficiency of approximately 18.45%. For a colored BIPV module, this is an excellent result - N-type TOPCon cell technology minimizes efficiency losses caused by the color coating and ensures stable power output over the full service life. ### What warranties does Lina Energy provide for the LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV series? Lina Energy provides a 20-year product warranty and a 30-year power output warranty. The extended 30-year power guarantee is one of the longest available in the BIPV segment, reflecting the durability of N-type TOPCon cells and the long-term stability of the color coating. ### Is the LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV panel bifacial? No, the LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV is a monofacial module. The colored front glass integrates aesthetically into the building facade or roof, while the opaque back sheet is standard for building-integrated applications, ensuring full weatherproofing of the building envelope. ### Do Lina Energy colored BIPV panels lose significantly more power compared to standard black modules? Colored BIPV modules inherently trade some efficiency for aesthetics - this is an accepted technological compromise. However, N-type TOPCon cells virtually eliminate Light-Induced Degradation (LID), and annual power degradation is only about 0.4%. Over 30 years, the panel retains more than 87% of its rated output, which is comparable to premium standard modules. ### What architectural applications is the LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV series best suited for? The LE MEPV 108 COLOURED BIPV series is engineered as an energy-generating building material. It performs well on pitched roofs, ventilated facades, atriums, and canopies where standard modules would compromise the building's visual identity. Target customers include premium investors, developers, and architects working on Class A office buildings and high-end residential projects. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/LE-MEPV-108-COLOURED-BIPV-350-360Wp-a2a167bbb331.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [JA Solar NS-300MH-72](https://comparepv.com/panel/ja-solar-ns-300mh-72) | 300 W | Cooler, lighter, +5.4 pp | | [PolyCrown Solar Tech NS-300MH-72](https://comparepv.com/panel/polycrown-solar-tech-ns-300mh-72) | 300 W | Cooler, lighter, +5.4 pp | | [JA Solar NS-330MH-80](https://comparepv.com/panel/ja-solar-ns-330mh-80) | 330 W | Cooler, lighter, +5.2 pp | | [PolyCrown Solar Tech NS-330MH-80](https://comparepv.com/panel/polycrown-solar-tech-ns-330mh-80) | 330 W | Cooler, lighter, +5.2 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA182M300W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka182m300w) | 300 W | -50 W, lighter, +5.1 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M320W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m320w) | 320 W | -30 W, lighter, +5.1 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M340W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m340w) | 340 W | -10 W, lighter, +5.1 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M360W](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m360w) | 360 W | +10 W, lighter, +5.1 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M380W (1/4\*4\*38)](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m380w-1-4-4-38) | 380 W | +30 W, lighter, +5.1 pp | | [Gamko New Energy GKA210M400W (1/2\*4\*20)](https://comparepv.com/panel/gamko-new-energy-gka210m400w-1-2-4-20) | 400 W | +50 W, lighter, +5.1 pp | | [Lina Energy MEPV 360 (Terracotta)](https://comparepv.com/panel/lina-energy-mepv-360-terracotta) | 360 W | +10 W, +0.5 pp | | [Lina Energy LEPV 410](https://comparepv.com/panel/lina-energy-lepv-410) | 410 W | +60 W, +3.1 pp | | [Lina Energy LEPV 415](https://comparepv.com/panel/lina-energy-lepv-415) | 415 W | +65 W, +3.3 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-510M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-510m) | 510 W | +160 W, cooler, +7.1 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A495-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a495-mce54mw) | 495 W | +145 W, cooler, +6.9 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-505M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-505m) | 505 W | +155 W, cooler, +6.8 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/lina-energy-mepv-350 Not in this file, on the page: a thirty-year output simulator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
