Maxeon solar panels deliver extreme crack resistance

Cracked cells in standard panels can occur from transport, installation, environmental stresses, and even poor manufacturing quality. Maxeon cells are reinforced by a thick plated layer of metal for added structural strength. If a crack forms, the metal backing holds the cell in place while maintaining full electrical conductivity.

[IMG: Maxeon panels perform more reliably in shade]

Maxeon panels perform more reliably in shade

It takes just a little bit of shade to impact the power output of a solar panel. Standard solar panels typically activate bypass diodes to counter the obstruction—shutting down an entire section of the panel to mitigate heat build-up—sacrificing energy generation in the process. Maxeon panels offer greater resilience to shade, powering through small obstructions with only a slight reduction in power output.

Maxeon panels are built to power through heat and humidity

The unique design of Maxeon panels not only features an engineered encapsulant that is highly resistive to moisture, but thick, plated copper which is much more robust and able to better withstand corrosion.

A solar panel’s encapsulant plays a critical role in protecting against humidity and moisture-induced corrosion. In humid conditions, moisture can penetrate through the layers of standard solar panels, corroding the panel’s thin metallic electrical connections. The unique design of Maxeon panels not only features an engineered encapsulant that is highly resistive to moisture, but thick, plated copper which is much more robust and able to better withstand corrosion.

Maxeon panels are built to power through temperature swings

Maxeon solar panels feature thick, plated copper contacts for long-term stability. Each tab offers redundant connections with built in strain relief, to ensure a consistent flow of energy while having the flexibility to expand and contract with temperature changes.

As the ambient temperature heats and cools on a daily basis, the metallic ribbons used in standard solar cell connections expand and contract with the temperature change. This repetitive contraction and expansion causes the metal connections to degrade and break over time. Maxeon panels on the other hand feature thick, plated copper contacts for long-term stability. Each tab offers redundant connections with built in strain relief, to ensure a consistent flow of energy while having the flexibility to expand and contract with temperature changes.

[IMG: Maxeon panels are significantly less likely to develop hot spots]

Maxeon panels are significantly less likely to develop hot spots

Shaded Maxeon cells demonstrate lower heat generation, that is more evenly spread across the entire cell. As such, the diodes in Maxeon panels activate less frequently, increasing both energy production and useful life of the panel.

When an area of a standard solar panel, due to shading for example, can no longer produce enough current to match its neighboring cells, the cells begin consuming power from the surrounding cells and converting it to heat. While bypass diodes are used to prevent overheating, persistent activation can cause the diodes to fail which makes the panel susceptible to hotspot formation. Shaded Maxeon cells demonstrate lower heat generation, that is more evenly spread across the entire cell. As such, the diodes in Maxeon panels activate less frequently, increasing both energy production and useful life of the panel.
