Effective power output over time
Year 1 to year 25, at 30°C and 1000 W/m². Rated 690 W at STC.
How this is modelled
Compounds this panel’s own published first-year (1%) and annual (0.35%/yr) degradation figures against its 690 W rated (STC) output, then derates for the ambient and irradiance selected. Output is scaled roughly linearly with irradiance (1000 W/m² against the 1000 W/m² STC reference). This is the dominant real-world effect at low light, whether from cloud, shading or soiling. Output is then further derated for heat, from this panel’s own NOCT (45°C) and temperature coefficient (-0.24%/°C), giving an estimated cell temperature of 61°C at that ambient and irradiance. A datasheet-derived estimate, not a field measurement or a warranty guarantee: it does not account for this panel’s own low-light efficiency response (a separate, less-consistently-published spec), or for wind and system design. See NOCT and temperature coefficient in the glossary.

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. The score uses the highest published power bin in the series. No market review has been completed, so no market-scoped range is published. Scored model: LR7-72HJD-690M · checked 2026-08-18. Evidence.
Sources & references · checked 2026-08-30
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. Built 2026-08-18 from LONGi's exact datasheet, retrieved and text-extracted locally. The document prints its own version as (BGV03 20260618) while the filename LONGi serves it under reads BGV_03_20260509; the printed version is treated as authoritative and the mismatch is recorded rather than resolved. Published as a global record: LONGi publishes no market list for the Hi-MO S10 series, the module holds no Australian CER approval, and none of LONGi's three published warranty instruments names this model, so no market has been reviewed rather than a market having been reviewed and found unavailable. First-market overlay review 2026-08-30: AU, US and DE overlays recorded from official regional surfaces; scores and identities unchanged.

DE Support Note
- Before
- Not previously recorded
- After
- LONGi's EU datasheet page names LR7-72HJD 665-690M. That is a European datasheet surface, not a German product listing. www.longi.com/de/ did not publish this code. None of LONGi's three published warranty instruments names LR7-72HJD, so Hi-MO X10 and Hi-MO 6 terms are not transferred.
