- Bifacial, Dual-glass
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, at 30°C and 1000 W/m². Rated 650 W at STC.
How this is modelled
Compounds this panel’s own published first-year (1%) and annual (0.4%/yr) degradation figures against its 650 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 (-0.29%/°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.

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 exact EU model. No Australian availability is implied. Scored model: SS9-60HD-650N · checked 2026-08-02. Evidence.

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.

Rings, outside in: manufacturer claim, certified or regulator-listed, third-party source. The centre is review.solar's own measurement, empty for every product today. Warranty terms and design facts that rest on the maker's own word are counted beside the rings; a reviewed absence, or one that reaches beyond the maker's claim, stays in them.

Summary
- Current text
- Intertek CEA’s September 2024 report publishes controlled outdoor July 2024 yield for SolarSpace SS9-66HD-695N in Xi’an, China. The table records the sample as provided by the supplier, without random selection by CEA (sample selection method 3). This supports manufacturer-level yield testing only: the tested 66-cell-series model is not the scored SS9-60HD-650N or its EU BOM. No measured yield, ranking or TOPCon identification is transferred to the 650W product. Field results depend on site, month, mounting and irradiance; they do not predict this module’s EU annual output.

Primary datasheetEU Support Note
- Current text
- This is a current EU datasheet family. No exact SS9-60HD-N Australian approved-module entry or Australian warranty pathway was established, so the record carries no Australian availability implication.

- labour: Removal and reinstallation are borne by the customer.; registration: No separate product-registration portal is stated as a condition for cover to start. Claims require written notice within 30 days of becoming aware of a defect, with model, serial number, installation details and related invoices. Transfer of remaining rights requires written notice and evidence of succession; that is not a start-of-cover registration portal. Clause 7 states that a complaint fed back six months after the problem occurs will not be accepted.; remedy: SolarSpace may repair, replace or compensate for an eligible failure.; removal reinstallation: Removal and reinstallation are excluded.; transferability: Transfer to a subsequent new owner is permitted on written notice to the supplier (clause 6), provided the module remains intact and unchanged at the initial installation site, the sales contract has no remaining arrears or other payables, the transfer is made as a whole and the assignee agrees to be bound by all the warranty terms. The clause requires reasonable evidence of succession or transfer of title within 15 business days from the date of receipt of the notice from SolarSpace, otherwise SolarSpace may refuse to process the related claim. Any other assignment is not binding on SolarSpace.; transport: Reasonable transport costs approved in advance are covered.
