- Electrical layer
- DC module output
- Construction
- Bifacial, Dual-glass
Performance guarantee: 30-year linear output
Wattage figure based on the sourced rated power (670 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 670 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 670 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.
| Year | 1 | 5 | 10 | 15 | 20 | 25 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Watts | 663 W | 654 W | 642 W | 630 W | 619 W | 607 W |
| % 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.
Benchmark anchor. The score is anchored to the highest published rating in this exact series. Scored model: JKM650-670N-66QL6-BDV-F4-EU · checked 2026-06-16. Evidence.

Strong evidence coverage
28 of 28 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 correction. Tiger Neo III 66QL6-BDV exact sheet, current CEC identity and AU/NZ bifacial warranty Rev AU20251210 rechecked 2026-08-23; salt, ammonia and service coverage corrected.

Source revision

- Corrected 2026-08-18: the record scored a guaranteed end-of-warranty output of 87.40%, attributed to the exact datasheet. That datasheet does not contain the figure. Its only end-of-warranty value is 88.85%, and it publishes the matching 1% first-year and 0.35% annual rates on the same line; 87.40% is what Jinko's warranty assigns to its half-cell HL4 and HL5 families, not to this quarter-cell QL6 model, whose warranty row reads 0.35% and 88.85%. The record also held the correct 0.35% rate, so its two values could not both be true: 1% in year one then 0.35% for twenty-nine years arrives at 88.85%. The value was carried in both specs and specs_v4, and specs_v4 takes precedence when the two are merged for scoring, so correcting only the first would have changed nothing. No evidence changed; the score rises from 77.0 to 78.0 because a guarantee both the datasheet and the warranty publish is now recorded correctly. Corrected 2026-08-19: LeTID recorded from the datasheet's own "superior resistance to PID, LID / LeTID" statement, previously logged as not stated. Manufacturer claim, no test cited. No score changes: the field is unscored. LeTID re-verified 2026-08-19 for rubric v2.12.0: scored under the returned criterion on the evidence recorded in its provenance. Re-verification 2026-08-19: Verified reliability recorded as "Brand or series independently tested; exact model not covered" under panel rubric v2.13.0, which added a band for brand or series evidence where the exact model is not covered by the third-party record. Re-verification 2026-08-20: Independent energy yield recorded as brand-or-series under panel rubric v2.14.0, which applied to this criterion the same exact-model rule v2.13.0 applied to Verified reliability.

- Corrected 2026-08-18: the record carried 87.40% guaranteed output at year 30, which is the figure Jinko's warranty assigns to its half-cell HL4 and HL5 families, not to this quarter-cell QL6 model. The warranty row for JKMxxxN-66QL6-BDV reads 0.35% annual decline and 88.85% at year thirty, and the record already carried the matching 0.35% rate, so the two values it held could not both be true: 1% in year one followed by 0.35% for twenty-nine years arrives at 88.85%, not 87.40%. No evidence changed and no other value changed; the score rises from 77.0 to 78.0 because a guarantee the manufacturer does publish is now recorded correctly.

Our reading
Tiger Neo III 66QL6-BDV scores 75, labelled Very good, against a class average of 64.6. That 75 is the displayed badge. Tiger Neo 72HL4-BDV also displays 75. The precise marks are 74.6 and 74.8, and those precise values determine active class order. Strongest dimension on this card is sustainability (100). Published specifications: 24.8 per cent module efficiency, N-type TOPCon, 12-year product warranty backed by a 30-year performance term.
