Compare Risen panels on ComparePV." source: "https://comparepv.com/reviews/risen" --- # Risen panels, *read off the datasheets* Risen has 153 modules in the database, from 345 to 745 Wp. Everything below is computed from those 153 datasheets: no score out of ten, no ranking of brands against each other, and nothing a manufacturer can pay to change. Where Risen does not publish a figure, it is left out of the average rather than assumed. ## The company - **Founded:** 1986 - **Headquarters:** Ninghai, China - **Listed:** SZSE: 300118 - **Tier 1 bankable:** Yes (good) Company facts, not datasheet figures. Tier 1 is a financier's bankability list, and says nothing about how a panel performs. ## Key figures | Measure | Value | Note | | --- | --- | --- | | Panels | 153 | models in the database | | Average efficiency | 21.8 % | across the catalogue | | Best efficiency | 24.0 % (good) | their strongest module | | Power range | 345-745 Wp | smallest to largest | | Bifacial share | 82 % | 125 dual-sided models | | Average warranty | 29 years | guaranteed output term | ## 01. The top of the range The leaders of Risen'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. ### Most efficient module efficiency | # | Panel | power | efficiency | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | [RSM132-8-745BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-745bhdg) | 745 Wp | 24.0% (good) | | 2 | [RSM132-8-740BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-740bhdg) | 740 Wp | 23.8% (good) | | 3 | [RSM132-8-735BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-735bhdg) | 735 Wp | 23.7% (good) | | 4 | [RSM132-8-730BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-730bhdg) | 730 Wp | 23.5% (good) | | 5 | [RSM132-11-605-630BNDG-630](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-11-605-630bndg-630) | 630 Wp | 23.3% (good) | - RSM132-8-745BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-740BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-735BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-730BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-11-605-630BNDG-630 - Monocrystalline bifacial [Sort the whole catalogue by efficiency](https://comparepv.com/panels/risen?sort_by=efficiency&sort_order=desc) ### Highest power nameplate output | # | Panel | efficiency | power | | --- | --- | --- | --- | | 1 | [RSM132-8-745BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-745bhdg) | 24.0% (good) | 745 Wp | | 2 | [RSM132-8-740BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-740bhdg) | 23.8% (good) | 740 Wp | | 3 | [RSM132-8-735BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-735bhdg) | 23.7% (good) | 735 Wp | | 4 | [RSM132-8-730BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-730bhdg) | 23.5% (good) | 730 Wp | | 5 | [RSM132-8-725BHDG](https://comparepv.com/panel/risen-energy-co-ltd-rsm132-8-725bhdg) | 23.3% (good) | 725 Wp | - RSM132-8-745BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-740BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-735BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-730BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial - RSM132-8-725BHDG - Monocrystalline bifacial [Sort the whole catalogue by power](https://comparepv.com/panels/risen?sort_by=power&sort_order=desc) ## 02.

What the catalogue is made of Shares are of the 153 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.
