Year 1 to year 25. Rated 495 W at STC.

How this is modelled

Modelled from this panel’s own published first-year (1%) and annual (0.35%/yr) degradation figures, compounded against its 495 W rated (STC) output. This is a datasheet-derived estimate, not a field measurement or a warranty guarantee. Actual output also depends on site irradiance, temperature, soiling and system design.

Market context

Global evidencechange in the site menu

Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.

Benchmark anchor. Stable public identity retained; benchmark narrowed to the exact current high-band document. Scored model: AIKO-A495-MCE54Mb · checked 2026-08-21. Evidence.

Sources & references · checked 2026-08-21

Strong evidence coverage

17 of 17 scored criteria link directly to a published source.

Values marked estimated, derived, or not found remain visible on the audit sheet and do not carry the same evidential weight as a linked source. Coverage measures direct links, not an independent guarantee that a claim is correct.

Record revision. Recalibrated 2026-08-21: the former combined Australian band was split at the manufacturer's current document and warranty boundary. This stable record now represents only 480-495 W. Its public slug is retained so existing citations do not break.

    checked: 2026-08-21; market: AU; max: 495; min: 480; range label: 480–495 W; source revision: Recalibrated 2026-08-21: the former combined Australian band was split at the manufacturer's current document and warranty boundary. This stable record now represents only 480-495 W. Its public slug is retained so existing citations do not break.; source url: https://aikosolar.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/G4-54Mb-1762_AIKO-A-MCE54Mb_480-495W-1762%C3%971134%C3%9730_202606_V2.1_EN.pdf; unit: W

    Current text
    Corrected 2026-08-17: the rear-contact architecture this record has always documented was stored only under a descriptive key the rubric does not read, so the scored contact criterion was being treated as undisclosed and floored. The datasheet evidence and the recorded value are unchanged; the score rises from 65.0 to 67.0 and the architecture pillar from 72.4 to 83.4 because a disclosure the manufacturer did publish is now counted. Every other AIKO record already carried the scored key; this one did not. Re-verified 2026-08-17 against AIKO's current datasheet, 202606 V2.1, retrieved and text-extracted rather than read from the product page. AIKO re-documented this family between May and June 2026: the sheet is now titled "Neostar 54", the 3P/3S generation designator is dropped, the filename carries a G4 prefix, and the printed SKU table reads AIKO-A480-MCE54Mb through AIKO-A495-MCE54Mb. AIKO's own product page still shows the older band, so page and datasheet disagree on the manufacturer's own site. AU range stays 465-495 W: the CER export lists AIKO-A465 through AIKO-A495-MCE54Mb to 4 June 2028, so the 465-475 W bins remain Australian-approved even though the current global sheet starts at 480 W. Scored model and score are unchanged, and the scored bin appears in both the current sheet and the regulator listing.
