Year 1 to year 25. Rated 440 W at STC.

How this is modelled

Modelled from this panel’s own published first-year (1%) and annual (0.4%/yr) degradation figures, compounded against its 440 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 AU rating for this exact series. Scored model: JKM440N-54HL4R-V · checked 2026-08-22. Evidence.

Sources & references · checked 2026-09-04

Strong evidence coverage

24 of 24 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. Jinko 54HL4R-V exact datasheet, current AU warranty and current CER approval, rechecked 2026-08-22 Re-verification 2026-08-18: PID and ammonia resistance recorded from the Clean Energy Council enhanced listing for exact model JKM440N-54HL4R-V, matched on exact model identity rather than brand or series. Salt mist is also enhanced-listed for this model but the rubric bands salt mist by severity and the regulator publishes none, so it remains unset. Re-verification 2026-08-18: salt mist recorded as certified without published severity from the Clean Energy Council enhanced listing for exact model JKM440N-54HL4R-V, under panel rubric v2.11.0 which added that band. 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.

    labour: Performance analysis, inspection, diagnosis, dismantling, repacking, installation and reinstallation are not an unconditional Jinko cost.; registration: No separate product-registration condition is stated. A claim must be lodged promptly, no later than 30 days after discovery, with claimant, serial, purchase, installation and supporting evidence.; remedy: Jinko may repair, replace, refund residual value or output-gap value, or supply additional modules under the published terms.; removal reinstallation: Dismantling, repacking, installation and reinstallation remain with the customer under the current warranty.; transferability: The current warranty extends to the original purchaser and its successors and permitted assigns, less benefits already claimed for the same cause.; transport: Jinko states it bears shipping for an accepted repair, replacement or additional-module remedy; unsupported returns and an unproven independent test can leave costs with the claimant.

    Jinko 54HL4R-V exact datasheet, current AU warranty and current CER approval, rechecked 2026-08-22 Re-verification 2026-08-18: PID and ammonia resistance recorded from the Clean Energy Council enhanced listing for exact model JKM440N-54HL4R-V, matched on exact model identity rather than brand or series. Salt mist is also enhanced-listed for this model but the rubric bands salt mist by severity and the regulator publishes none, so it remains unset. Re-verification 2026-08-18: salt mist recorded as certified without published severity from the Clean Energy Council enhanced listing for exact model JKM440N-54HL4R-V, under panel rubric v2.11.0 which added that band. 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.
