After the success of previous solar panel models, Longi has announced it’s new PV cell variant “Longi Hi-Mo X 10”. Solar panels are becoming more advanced every year, and LONGi is a leader in this progress. The Longi Hi-MO X 10 is a top-quality N-Type solar panel that combines high performance, great looks, and long-lasting durability. It’s an excellent choice for homes and businesses looking for reliable solar energy.
Specifications
Before choosing the solar panels for your homes and businesses you must know the it’s key features. Longi Hi-Mo X 10 is coming with wonderful features, packed with modern technology. Let’s have a look:
1- HPBC 2.0 Cell
HPBC 2.0 also known as second generation of Hybrid Passivation Back Contact cell technology, which is an advancement in previous HPBC 1.0 technology. It uses high-quality N-type silicon wafers from LONGi, which help the solar cells last longer, perform better and resist wear and tear.
HPBC 2.0 uses upgraded passivation technology to reduce energy loss and boost the cell’s power output by increasing voltage efficiency. It introduces a Zero Busbar (0BB) structure that shortens the distance electricity travels within the cell, increasing power output by about 5W. Advanced laser and insulation techniques further improve safety and performance.
2- High Efficiency & Anti-Humidity
Maximum efficiency gained by any N-type solar panel is around 23.2% while Hi-MO X 10 will offer 24.8% of record breaking efficiency which is one of the highest efficiency ever achieved by a PV manufacturing company. It is the latest and most efficient PV cell by Longi with anti-humidity features which make it suitable cell to use in humid areas of Pakistan such as Karachi.
3- Stylish Design
Longi paid extra attention to aesthetics, Hi-MO X10 will come in all black with no front grid lines which will make it unique, attractive and visually appealing. Forget about the boring design and enhance the aesthetic as well as energy efficiency of your residential and commercial spaces.
4- Low Degradation Rate
Solar panel starts degrading right after it’s installation, companies can do nothing about the degradation instead of slowing down per year degradation rate. Longi claimed that Hi-MO X 10 will degrade 1% in the first year and 0.35% for next 29 years that will make it last for longer duration with minimal drop in performance.
5- High Temperature Performance
Typically, solar panels do not perform well in high temperature as the ideal temperature for optimal performance is around 25 degree celsius. With each degree celsius rise in temperature, energy efficiency will drop by some value. But, Longi Hi-MO 10 has 0.26% temperature coefficient which means, it only drop performance by 0.26% with each degree celsius rise.
6- Low Light Performance
According to Longi, Hi-MO 10 variant performs 27% better than Top-Con PV cells in low light and even in shade. Company call it anti-shading panel because it effectively generates electricity in dim light and cloudy days.
7- Same Size, More Power
Hi-MO X 10 will be available in standard size to rule out the necessity of specialised mounting structure. It means your solar system will generate more power without occupying extra space. Now, you can get more power in same size.
8- High Quality Wafer
High quality Tai-Ray thick silicon wafers are used in the manufacturing of Hi-MO X 10. Strong one-line welding and durable wafer plays key role in extending the life of these panels. These upcoming panels will be highly resistant towards cracks as company claims 87.2% less crack risks as compared to other PV cells.
Longi Hi-MO X 10 Expected Price in Pakistan
There is no confirmation about the cost of these panels as Hi-MO X10 is not officially launched in Pakistan yet. As per company representatives, Longi Hi-MO 10 per watt price would be 3 to 4 rupees more than existing models. On the other hand, power generation capacity will also increase so, I think it’s a fair deal.
Expected Release Date
Longi Hi-MO 10 panels are currently unavailable in Pakistan. However, they are expected to be
available for purchase by late January or February 2025. As a solar expert, I recommend waiting
until the company’s official representatives launch the product directly before making a purchase.
Longi Hi-MO X 10 Variants and Warranty
Hi-MO X 10 will be entering in the PV cell market with three variants. Names and features are given below:
