Performance guarantee: 30-year linear output
Wattage figure based on the sourced rated power (650 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 650 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 650 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.

| % of rated | 99.0% | 97.6% | 95.8% | 94.1% | 92.3% | 90.6% |

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

Australian warranty decision
1 product record
Read the Australian warranty as a claim pathway: the headline term is separate from remedy, labour, freight, site work, transfer and registration conditions.

Australian evidence checked 2026-08-17.
Covered5 sources
Australian warranty scope: Covered by the AIKO N-Type ABC Utility-Scale Module Warranty 1.6, which names MCH72Dw and provides a 15-year product term and a 30-year power term.
Structured claim terms: Recorded.
- Term
- 15 yr product / 30 yr performanceStated in the structured comparison
- Product remedy
- ConditionalAIKO determines the repair plan and may repair or replace an accepted defective module.
- Labour
- Not statedRemoval, reinstallation and site labour are borne by the customer.
- Freight
- ConditionalAIKO bears testing and inspection freight only where it is found responsible for the defect.
- Removal and reinstallation
- Not statedRemoval and reinstallation are borne by the customer.
- Transferability
- CoveredTransfer requires AIKO's agreement and a signed tripartite agreement, and the modules must remain installed at the original location (clause 7.1).
- Registration and conditions
- Not statedClaims must be submitted in writing within 30 days of the customer becoming aware, with serial numbers, purchase vouchers and supporting evidence.

Strong evidence coverage
16 of 16 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. Built 2026-08-17 from AIKO's current exact datasheet (V4.1 202510), retrieved and text-extracted locally rather than read from the product page, because AIKO's product pages and its own datasheets disagree on published bands. The sheet ladder spans 635-660 W; the retained Australian range is 635-650 W because the CER approved-module export checked 2026-08-12 lists MCH72Dw only across that band, expiring 2027-07-12.
