Description
This all-black Canadian Solar panel delivers 445W through advanced N-type TOPCon technology. The 48-cell configuration uses Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact architecture to achieve 22.3% efficiency, significantly outperforming traditional PERC panels in high-temperature conditions.
TOPCon technology fundamentally changes how electrons move through the cell, reducing power loss and improving longevity. Where standard panels degrade 23% over 30 years, this TOPHiKu6 module maintains 87.4% of its original output after three decades thanks to superior temperature coefficients and reduced internal resistance.
The compact 48-cell design provides higher power density than conventional 60-cell panels while maintaining compatibility with standard racking systems. Heat-strengthened glass construction minimizes microcrack propagation under stress, certified to withstand 5400Pa wind loads and 2400Pa snow loads.
Canadian Solar developed this panel series specifically for demanding environments, with ammonia resistance certification for agricultural installations and enhanced salt mist corrosion testing for coastal deployments. The all-black aesthetic integrates seamlessly into residential rooftops while the 30-year warranty reflects the manufacturer’s confidence in TOPCon reliability.

I’m astonished that the panels arrived unbroken. Minor damage from shipping, but less than one would expect given the complete lack of protection around them. The panels themselves seem good. Tested two and had proper voltage. Have not installed yet.
