Performance guarantee: 30-year linear output
Wattage figure based on the sourced rated power (475 W) applied to the guaranteed floor; modular/format differences aside, this is the same rated-power spec shown above.
Modelled effective output, year by year
Year 1 to year 25. Rated 475 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 475 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.

Global benchmark. This scorecard is benchmarked globally. A global score does not imply local availability, certification, warranty coverage, or installer compatibility.
Benchmark anchor. The score is anchored to the highest published rating in this exact series. Scored model: AIKO-A475-MAH54Dw · checked 2026-08-29. Evidence.
Sources & references · checked 2026-09-02
Strong evidence coverage
26 of 26 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. Neostar 2P+ exact V4.1 sheet and N-Type ABC warranty v1.6.3 rechecked 2026-08-23; standard hail, base warranty and the reviewed ammonia absence are now directly linked. Official Australian due-soon freshness recheck 2026-08-29. India existing-catalogue panel ALMM review 2026-09-02: IN overlays recorded against List-I revision 03.08.2026; scores unchanged.

- The exact scored model AIKO-A475-MAH54Dw is not named on ALMM List-I revision 03.08.2026. ALMM is a domestic-content and procurement instrument; absence is not a quality finding and does not change the global score. A manufacturer catalogue is not a substitute for List-I. Existing AU, US, DE or EU warranty terms are not transferred.

AU Warranty scope
- Before
- Australia; AIKO's AU module documentation covers the AIKO-Axxx-MAH54Dw family. Confirm the applicable local warranty terms for the exact supply contract.
- After
- The governing N-Type ABC warranty remains a global document. It is not treated as proof that this exact 2P+ dual-glass identity is currently sold in Australia.

Primary datasheetAU Support Note
- Before
- AIKO's Australia installation manual covers the AIKO-A475-MAH54Dw model family, and the manufacturer datasheet identifies the exact 475 W dual-glass variant.
- After
- The exact V4.1 datasheet remains published. That global sheet does not establish current Australian availability. The current AIKO Australia catalogue lists Neostar 2P54 mono-glass and 2S+ dual-glass, not this 2P+ 54 dual-glass MAH54Dw identity. Those nearby catalogue identities are not transferred. Australian availability is therefore not reviewed.
