The panel uses **N-Type half-cut cells** on the 210R platform, delivering higher conversion efficiency and steadier performance under partial shading. Thanks to its **bifacial dual glass construction**, the module captures additional energy reflected from the ground, meaningfully lowering system LCOE and shortening the payback period. A low power temperature coefficient combined with strong low-light performance means the series performs well both in temperate climates and in regions with high ambient temperatures. The manufacturer highlights **resistance to LID, LeTID and PID degradation**, while the reinforced frame and tempered glass withstand snow loads up to 5400 Pa, wind loads up to 2400 Pa, and hail up to 35 mm in diameter. It's a fit for installers and investors working on PV farms and large rooftop projects who need high power density, long-term reliability, and predictable annual degradation. Strict quality control and extended manufacturer warranties further protect project profitability over decades of operation. ## Notable figures - At 23.2% efficiency, this panel is 0.7pp above typical \*\*N-type 500-550W\*\* modules (median: 22.5%) - Power density of 231.6 W/m² packs 6.3 W/m² more into the same footprint vs \*\*N-type 500-550W\*\* median (225.3 W/m²) - Temperature coefficient of -0.29%/°C matches the \*\*N-type 500-550W\*\* median - Weight of 27.5 kg is 1.3 kg above \*\*N-type 500-550W\*\* median (26.2 kg) - verify structural support - Bifacial design (80% factor) captures reflected light - adds 4-12% yield on ground-mount or white roof ## Questions ### How much power does the Runergy HY-DH108N11 Turbo panel produce and who is it for? The module delivers up to 530 Wp of maximum power, with 108 half-cut N-type cells providing high power density per square meter. This makes it well suited for installers and investors of PV farms and large rooftop installations, where maximizing energy yield from limited installation area is the priority. ### What does bifacial dual glass technology offer in the Runergy Turbo panels? The bifacial dual glass construction allows the module to capture light from both sides, recovering extra energy reflected off the ground, roof, or a light-colored surface. In practice this means higher annual yield without increasing installation area, which lowers LCOE and shortens payback time, especially with reflective ground or elevated mounting. ### What warranty comes with the Runergy HY-DH108N11 Turbo panels? The manufacturer offers a 12-year product warranty and a 30-year power output warranty, which is standard for premium N-type modules. Runergy, as a Tier 1 manufacturer, also applies strict quality control, safeguarding the investment's profitability over decades of operation. ### Can the Runergy Turbo panels withstand heavy wind, snow, and hail? Yes, the robust frame and tempered glass support snow loads up to 5400 Pa and wind loads up to 2400 Pa, with hail resistance up to 35 mm diameter. This makes the series suitable for regions with heavy snowfall as well as areas prone to strong winds or hailstorms. ### How do N-type half-cut cells differ from older P-type technology? The N-type cells on the 210R platform with half-cut technology offer higher conversion efficiency, a lower power temperature coefficient, and better stability under partial shading compared to older P-type cells. The manufacturer also highlights resistance to LID, LeTID, and PID degradation, resulting in more predictable and slower power loss over time. ### Do the Runergy Turbo panels perform well in high ambient temperatures? Yes, the low power temperature coefficient typical of N-type cells means the module loses relatively less output as operating temperature rises compared to P-type designs. Combined with better low-light performance, the series performs well in both moderate climates and regions with high ambient temperatures. ## Datasheet [Manufacturer datasheet (PDF)](https://comparepv.com/datasheets/HY-DH108N11-Turbo-Global-Ver25Q4500-530W-2e28186511f8.pdf) ## Alternatives | Panel | Power | How it differs | | --- | --- | --- | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-510M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-510m) | 510 W | Cooler, lighter, +1.8 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A495-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a495-mce54mw) | 495 W | Cooler, lighter, +1.6 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-560M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-560m) | 560 W | +45 W, cooler, +1.6 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-505M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-505m) | 505 W | Cooler, lighter, +1.5 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVH-555M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvh-555m) | 555 W | +40 W, cooler, +1.4 pp | | [AIKO AIKO-A490-MCE54Mw](https://comparepv.com/panel/aiko-aiko-a490-mce54mw) | 490 W | Cooler, lighter, +1.3 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-54HJD-500M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-54hjd-500m) | 500 W | Cooler, lighter, +1.3 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-490](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-490) | 490 W | -25 W, -1.2 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-495](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-495) | 495 W | -20 W, -1.0 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-500](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-500) | 500 W | -15 W, -0.7 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-505](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-505) | 505 W | -10 W, -0.5 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-510](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-510) | 510 W | -0.3 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-520](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-520) | 520 W | Very close match | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-525](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-525) | 525 W | +10 W, +0.4 pp | | [Runergy HY-DH108N11-530](https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-530) | 530 W | +15 W, +0.6 pp | | [Longi Solar LR7-60HVHL-550M](https://comparepv.com/panel/longi-lr7-60hvhl-550m) | 550 W | +35 W, lighter, +1.2 pp | --- Source: https://comparepv.com/panel/runergy-hy-dh108n11-515 Not in this file, on the page: the I-V and temperature curves lifted from the manufacturer's datasheet, a thirty-year output simulator, a bifacial gain calculator and alternatives filtered by how closely they match these dimensions.
