HIP-215NKHA5 Solar Panel from Sanyo Electric

Crystalline silicon solar cell and HIT solar cell structure comparison
The SANYO HIT (Heterojunction with Intrinsic Thin layer) solar cell is composed of a single thin crystalline silicon wafer surrounded by ultra-thin amorphous silicon layers. This product provides industry-leading performance and value using state-of-the-art manufacturing techniques.

High output produced by minimizing power generation losses in the non-regular grid area on the solar cell surface.

HIT solar cells improve boundary characteristics and reduce power generation losses by forming impurity-free i-type amorphous silicon layers between the crystalline base and p- and n-type amorphous silicon layers.


High Efficiency
HIT® Power solar panels are leaders in sunlight conversion efficiency. Obtain maximum power within a fixed amount of space. Save money using fewer system attachments and racking materials, and reduce costs by spending less time installing per watt. HIT Power models are ideal for grid-connected solar systems, areas with performance based incentives, and renewable energy credits.

Power Guarantee
SANYO’s power ratings for HIT Power panels guarantee customers receive 100% of the nameplate rated power (or more) at the time of purchase, enabling owners to generate more kWh per rated watt, quicken investments returns, and help realize complete customer satisfaction.

Temperature Performance
As temperatures rise, HIT Power solar panels produce 10% or more electricity (kWh) than conventional crystalline silicon solar panels at the same temperature.

Valuable Features
The packing density of the panels reduces transportation, fuel, and storage costs per installed watt.

Quality Products Made in USA
SANYO silicon wafers located inside HIT solar panels are made in California and Oregon (from October 2009), and the panels are assembled in an ISO 9001 (quality), 14001 (environment), and 18001 (safety) certified factory. Unique eco-packing minimizes cardboard waste at the job site. The panels have a Limited 20-Year Power Output and 5-Year Product Workmanship Warranty.
