The SOLID Solrif Full Black series is a solar photovoltaic (BIPV) roofing solution that combines roofing functionality with energy production, eliminating the need to purchase traditional roofing tiles. The panels are manufactured using a glass-glass technology, without a visible frame, providing a sleek, uniformly black appearance that seamlessly integrates with the building's architecture. The heart of the modules is composed of N-type TOPCon bifacial solar cells, which generate energy from both the front and back sides, resulting in significantly higher energy yields compared to standard monofacial panels. The durability of the structure is confirmed by a Class 4 hail resistance certificate (up to 40 mm) and its ability to withstand extreme loads. The manufacturer guarantees a lifespan of 50 years for the modules and offers a 30-year product warranty. The series is primarily targeted at investors building new homes or renovating roofs, who want a consistent and aesthetically pleasing roof without compromising on performance. The Cradle-to-Cradle Gold certification confirms the environmentally friendly approach.

About the SOLID Solrif Full Black series

6 answered

These answers cover the whole series. Where a figure differs, the specification above is this module's own.

Does the SOLID Solrif Full Black replace traditional roof tiles?
Yes, the SOLID Solrif Full Black series is a BIPV (Building-Integrated Photovoltaics) solution that simultaneously serves as a roof covering and generates electricity. By installing these modules, you eliminate the need to purchase and lay separate roof tiles, which can significantly reduce total project costs. The system is designed for pitched roofs - both new construction and roof renovation projects.
What warranty does the SOLID Solrif Full Black come with?
Solitek provides a 30-year product warranty and a 30-year power output warranty, guaranteeing that each module retains at least 90% of its rated 435 Wp output after 30 years. The manufacturer also declares a 50-year module lifespan, meaning the panels can continue generating energy well beyond the official warranty period.
What does bifacial TOPCon technology mean for the SOLID Solrif Full Black?
N-type TOPCon cells deliver higher efficiency and lower power degradation at elevated temperatures (Pmax temperature coefficient: -0.30%/°C) compared to older PERC cells. The bifacial design allows the module to generate power from its rear side as well, harvesting reflected or diffused light. Solitek reports a potential yield gain of up to 35% over a monofacial equivalent.
Do the SOLID Solrif Full Black panels perform well during Polish winters and in low-irradiance conditions?
Yes. N-type TOPCon technology is recognized for excellent low-irradiance performance on overcast days and during dawn or dusk hours. The low temperature coefficient (-0.30%/°C) means cold, sunny winter days can produce higher output than hot summer afternoons. The bifacial structure also captures light reflected off snow, providing an additional yield boost in winter months.
How resistant are the SOLID Solrif Full Black panels to hail and extreme weather?
The modules carry a Class 4 hail resistance certification, confirming they withstand ice balls up to 40 mm in diameter. The frameless glass-glass construction with 3.2 mm panes provides high mechanical resistance to wind and snow loads. The series also holds the Cradle-to-Cradle Gold certification, reflecting the manufacturer's commitment to sustainable production and end-of-life recyclability.
What is the rated power output and efficiency of the SOLID Solrif Full Black?
The SOLID Solrif Full Black delivers a peak power output of 435 Wp at a module efficiency of 22.04%. Measuring 1767 x 1160 x 20 mm and weighing 33.5 kg, these specifications place the series near the top of the market, making it an excellent choice for homeowners seeking to maximize energy yield from a limited pitched-roof surface area.
