The Tongwei TNC Series of solar panels redefines performance standards thanks to proprietary N-type cell technology, which significantly reduces energy losses at the atomic level. The use of TNC (Tongwei N-type Cell) technology allows for higher light conversion efficiency compared to conventional TOPCon solutions available on the market. The innovative design based on SMBB multi-busbar cells ensures better current flow and minimizes the risk of harmful micro-cracks, which translates into decades of trouble-free operation for the entire system. These panels effectively eliminate the problem of light-induced degradation, offering exceptional resistance to LID and LeTID phenomena. Thanks to an excellent temperature coefficient, these modules work significantly more efficiently on hot summer days, generating more energy from the same roof area. This is an ideal solution for investors looking for maximum yields in difficult lighting conditions, characteristic of the capricious Polish climate. The Tongwei TNC Series stands out from the competition thanks to full control of the silicon supply chain, guaranteeing the highest material purity and stability of electrical parameters for every module. These products are ideal for both residential micro-installations and demanding commercial projects where the priority is the lowest levelized cost of energy (LCOE).

About the TNC Series series

6 answered

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

How much power can Tongwei TNC Series panels with 710 Wp output actually generate?
TNC Series panels reach a maximum output of up to 710 Wp thanks to N-type TOPCon cell technology, delivering higher conversion efficiency on the same surface area compared to classic PERC modules. For a typical 6 kWp residential installation, about 8-9 panels are needed, meaningfully reducing the required roof area while keeping the same system capacity.
What warranty comes with Tongwei TNC Series panels?
Tongwei provides a 12-year product warranty and a 30-year linear power output warranty. This covers both manufacturing defects and excessive efficiency loss over time. Tongwei holds Tier 1 manufacturer status, confirming financial stability and a realistic ability to honor warranty claims throughout this entire period.
Do TNC Series panels perform well on hot summer days?
Yes, TNC Series modules feature a favorable temperature coefficient typical of TOPCon technology, limiting power loss at high cell operating temperatures compared to older PERC-based solutions. In practice, this means smaller efficiency drops on hot summer days, when a roof-mounted panel's temperature can significantly exceed ambient temperature.
How does the N-type TOPCon technology in TNC Series differ from standard PERC panels?
The N-type cells used in TNC Series have a purer silicon structure and an additional passivation layer, reducing carrier recombination and energy losses compared to classic P-type PERC cells. The result is higher module efficiency, lower light-induced degradation, and better resistance to LID and LeTID, translating into more stable energy yields throughout the system's lifetime.
Are Tongwei TNC Series panels resistant to microcracks and mechanical damage?
Yes, the design based on multi-busbar SMBB cells spreads current across more connection paths, reducing the risk of microcracks and limiting the impact of a single cell defect on overall panel performance. This construction improves the module's mechanical durability, which matters both during transport and installation and over years of exposure to snow and wind loads on the roof.
Is the Tongwei TNC Series a bifacial panel?
No, this configuration of the TNC Series is a monofacial panel, not bifacial. It generates energy only from irradiance hitting the front side of the module. Customers looking for extra energy gain from light reflected off the ground can ask Tongwei about separate bifacial variants offered in other product series, so it's worth checking availability when placing an order.
