Meyer Burger panels, read off the datasheets

Meyer Burger has 24 modules in the database, from 370 to 560 Wp.

Everything below is computed from those 24 datasheets: no score out of ten, no ranking of brands against each other, and nothing a manufacturer can pay to change. Where Meyer Burger does not publish a figure, it is left out of the average rather than assumed.

The top of the range

The leaders of Meyer Burger's own catalogue on the two figures a specification sheet leads with. Neither is a verdict: the most efficient module in a range is rarely the one that suits a given roof.

By what the array is for

Three cuts of the same catalogue, each ordered by efficiency inside its band. An empty column means the brand does not build for that case.

What the catalogue is made of

Cell technology across the market

Shares are of the 24 modules in the database, counted once each. A power ladder of one module counts as its rungs, which is why a large catalogue is not the same as a wide one.

Cell technology share of the catalogue
HJT 100.0% 24
HJT accounts for 100.0% of the catalogue - 24 of 24 modules.

  • Tier 1 bankable manufacturer - recognized by major financial institutions
  • Strong bifacial lineup - 58% of portfolio supports dual-sided generation
  • Strong warranty coverage averaging 28 years
  • Established manufacturer with 73+ years of experience
Where it is thin
