How this is modelled

Compounds this panel’s own published first-year (1%) and annual (0.35%/yr) degradation figures against its 660 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 (-0.26%/°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.

    labour: LONGi may perform a site investigation at its own cost, but the warranty does not promise reimbursement of customer or on-site repair labour.; registration: No product pre-registration requirement is stated. Written or email notice is due within 30 days after identifying a claim, with purchase, serial, project and defect evidence.; remedy: At LONGi's choice: repair, replacement or additional modules, residual-value refund, or payment for a warranted power shortfall.; removal reinstallation: Dismantling, repacking, installation and reinstallation costs are borne by the customer.; transferability: The complete warranty may transfer after written notice while the modules remain at the original site, all amounts are paid and the new owner accepts all terms.; transport: Necessary documented claim shipping may be compensated with technical-service approval. Remedy delivery, insurance, freight and customs otherwise follow the original supply-contract Incoterms.

    Re-sourced 2026-08-18. The record previously cited a Draft BGV02 revision dated 18 November 2024 covering a 630-650 W band, and carried the series name Hi-MO X10 Explorer. LONGi has retired that classification: the Hi-MO X10 range is now published as Scientist and Guardian, and the current sheet for this model is BGV03 20260509, read page-by-page because LONGi serves it as an image-only scan with no text layer. The manufacturer band moves to 640-670 W; the retained Australian range is 640-660 W because the CER export checked 2026-08-12 lists this model only across that band. The scored bin therefore moves to 660 W and the module efficiency to 24.43%.

LONGi has retired that classification: the Hi-MO X10 range is now published as Scientist and Guardian, and the current sheet for this model is BGV03 20260509, read page-by-page because LONGi serves it as an image-only scan with no text layer. The manufacturer band moves to 640-670 W; the retained Australian range is 640-660 W because the CER export checked 2026-08-12 lists this model only across that band. The scored bin therefore moves to 660 W and the module efficiency to 24.43%.
