Year 1 to year 25. Rated 465 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 465 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.
