Sharp has unveiled new n-type monocrystalline bifacial solar panels based on tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) cell technology.
The NBJE610 double-glass module features 132 half-cut solar cells based on G2 wafers and a 16-busbar design. It features a power conversion efficiency of 22.58% and a power output of 610 W.
The new panels measure 2,382 mm x 1,134 mm x 30 mm and weigh 34 kg. They can be used in PV systems with a maximum voltage of 1,500 V and an operating temperature between -40 C and 85 C.
The IEC61215- and IEC61730-certified product has an operating temperature coefficient of -0.29% per C. The bifaciality factor is reportedly over 80%.
The company offers a 30-year linear power output guarantee. The 30-year end power output is guaranteed to be no less than 87.5% of the nominal output power. As for the product warranty, it is 25 years for rooftop projects and 15 years for ground-mounted plants.
The warranty takes effect upon delivery of the module to the end customer and for the European market is provided by Sharp Electronics GmbH in Hamburg, Germany.

Great technology ,I love it what is the total no of cell for the 610 wtts.For 6 panels what is the capacity of the solar controller it will use with 3.5kva inverter. Can you show me the computation.
