Middle of its segment, weak in heat
The Vikram Solar HYPERSOL VSMDH.72.AAA.05 series (580-605 W) is designed to maximize energy yield in situations where stable performance under variable conditions is critical. The modules utilize N-type cells in a half-cut configuration, which supports higher efficiency and better performance in low-light conditions, while also minimizing typical aging losses seen in many standard designs. In practice, this translates to more reliable annual energy production and a more predictable return on investment.
Compared to the competition, it stands out due to its glass-glass bifacial construction, which allows for energy harvesting from reflected light, as well as high PID resistance and lower susceptibility to LID and LeTID thanks to carefully selected materials and process control. Furthermore, the modules offer 0% negative power tolerance and current selectivity, which reduces the risk of mismatch in strings.
This is a good choice for PV farms, large commercial rooftops, and projects where durability, cost-effectiveness, and hassle-free operation are key.

Hot climates.
Bottom 6% of the HJT 550-600 W segment, against a median of -0.240. Ranked 1,309th in the whole database.
- Efficiency of 22.6% matches the HJT 550-600W median
- Power density of 226.5 W/m² matches the HJT 550-600W median
- -0.28%/°C temperature coefficient - 0.04pp worse than HJT 550-600W median (-0.24%/°C), expect higher hot weather losses
- At 31.6 kg, weight matches the HJT 550-600W median
- Bifacial design (75% factor) captures reflected light - adds 4-11% yield on ground-mount or white roof

Datasheet charts
Measured curves published by Vikram Solar in this model's datasheet. A chart carrying a wattage was measured on that variant alone - only the ones that describe 585 Wp appear here. The rest cover the whole series.
Simulations
Degradation from this panel's own datasheet figures. No inverter, soiling or shading losses.
Model: bifaciality × albedo × 0.6 view factor. A first-order estimate, not a yield simulation.
