Canadian N Type Module

Canadian N Type Module: Comprehensive Overview

Technology Introduction

Canadian Solar N-Type modules represent the next generation of solar technology, utilizing N-Type silicon substrate instead of the industry-standard P-Type. This fundamental material shift enables higher efficiency, better performance in real-world conditions, and superior long-term reliability compared to conventional PERC panels.


Canadian N Type Module Product Series Overview

1. HiKu7 (N-Type TOPCon Monofacial Series)

  • Power Range: 590W to 625W+

  • Efficiency: Up to 23.5%

  • Key Feature: Optimized for front-side performance

  • Applications: Standard utility-scale and commercial projects where bifacial gain isn’t practical

2. TOPBiHiKu7 (N-Type TOPCon Bifacial Series)

  • Power Range: 600W to 705W (industry-leading)

  • Efficiency: Up to 24.3%

  • Bifaciality Factor: >90% (exceptional rear-side generation)

  • Applications: Utility solar farms with high-albedo surfaces, commercial rooftops with reflective membranes

3. HiHero (N-Type HJT Series)

  • Power Range: 440W to 465W (residential focus)

  • Efficiency: Up to 23.0%

  • Technology: Heterojunction (HJT) – premium residential

  • Applications: High-end residential, space-constrained commercial


Core Advantages of Canadian N Type Module

Performance Superiority

  • Higher Efficiency: 23-24.3% vs. 21-22% for premium P-Type

  • Better Temperature Coefficient: -0.29%/°C vs. -0.34%/°C for PERC (less power loss in heat)

  • Superior Low-Light Performance: Enhanced dawn/dusk and cloudy day output

  • Zero LID (Light-Induced Degradation): Eliminates the 1-2% initial power drop seen in P-Type

Canadian N Type Module Long-Term Reliability

  • Lower Degradation Rate:

    • Year 1: <1% vs. 2% for PERC

    • Year 30: ~87.4% remaining vs. ~84% for PERC

  • Better PID Resistance: Superior resistance to Potential Induced Degradation

  • Enhanced Durability: Robust against micro-cracks and mechanical stress

Canadian N Type Module Financial Benefits

  • Higher Energy Yield: 3-8% more kWh per kWp installed

  • Lower LCOE: Reduced Levelized Cost of Energy over system lifetime

  • Space Efficiency: More power per square meter (crucial for constrained sites)

  • Better ROI: Faster payback despite premium pricing
