Shinson Technology S.max photovoltaic panels are an advanced solution designed to maximize yields in demanding commercial projects and solar farms. The use of innovative N-type TOPCon cell technology allows for achieving exceptional efficiency exceeding 22%, while simultaneously minimizing the phenomenon of power degradation over time. This series effectively addresses the issue of high BOS investment costs by offering modules with very high unit power, allowing for a significant reduction in the number of mounting structures and cabling. A key differentiator is bifaciality (bifacial), which enables the generation of additional energy from radiation reflected from the ground, increasing actual yields by up to 30%. S.max modules stand out from the competition with their extreme hail resistance, as confirmed by rigorous impact tests with spheres up to 45mm in diameter, ensuring safety in the face of more severe weather events. Thanks to a low temperature coefficient, the panels operate stably even in full sun, maintaining high efficiency on hot days. This product is dedicated to investors whose priority is the lowest cost of energy (LCOE) and a 30-year performance warranty, providing a solid safeguard for the long-term profitability of every system.

Common questions

6 answered
What is TOPCon technology and what does it bring to the Shinson Technology S.max series?
TOPCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) is an N-type cell technology that drastically reduces electron recombination losses at the metal contacts. In the S.max series this translates to efficiency exceeding 22% and an exceptionally low annual degradation rate, far better than conventional PERC modules. The result is higher real-world energy yield across the full 30-year operating lifetime.
What is the maximum power output of the Shinson S.max panel and what type of installations is it designed for?
The S.max series reaches up to 580 Wp. It is engineered for utility-scale solar farms and large commercial installations where high unit power directly cuts BoS costs: fewer mounting structures, cables, and junction boxes are required. Shinson claims over 15% BoS cost savings compared to lower-power modules, which meaningfully improves the project's overall LCOE.
What warranty do Shinson Technology S.max panels come with and what does it cover?
The S.max series is backed by both a 30-year product warranty covering material and workmanship defects, and a 30-year performance warranty. This extended dual warranty horizon allows investors to accurately project LCOE over the full system lifecycle and provides a solid financial safeguard for the long-term profitability of any solar farm project.
Do S.max panels lose significant power on hot days? What is their temperature coefficient?
The S.max series carries a low temperature coefficient of -0.31%/°C, meaning for every degree above 25°C the panel loses only about 0.31% of rated power. This outperforms typical PERC modules (around -0.35%/°C), so S.max delivers higher output during the peak summer hours that are most critical to a farm's annual energy balance.
Are Shinson S.max panels hail-resistant and what tests have they passed?
Yes. S.max modules have successfully passed impact tests with 45 mm diameter hailstones, well above the standard IEC requirement of 25 mm. This is especially important for investors siting solar farms in regions prone to severe hailstorms, where panel damage generates significant maintenance costs and generation downtime.
Do Shinson Technology S.max panels carry the required certifications and is the warranty enforceable in Poland?
Shinson Technology is listed in global PV panel databases, and the S.max series should carry IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 certifications required for grid-connected operation in the EU. Before purchase, verify with the local distributor how warranty claims are handled in Poland and whether on-site service support is available, as this is critical over the 30-year protection horizon.
