1 [Type text] X-SERIES SOLAR PANELS UNMATCHED PERFORMANCE, RELIABILITY & AESTHETICS 21.5% efficiency Ideal for roofs where space is at a premium or where future expansion might be needed. Maximum performance Designed to deliver the most energy in demanding real world conditions, in partial 1, 2, 3 shade and hot rooftop temperatures. Premium aesthetics Sun Signature Black X-Series panels blend harmoniously into your roof. The most elegant choice for your home. SIGNATURE TM BLACK X PANEL 6 HIGHEST EFFICIENCY Generate more energy per square foot X-Series residential panels convert more sunlight to electricity producing 44% more power per panel, 1 and 75% more energy per square foot over 25 years. 3,4 HIGHEST ENERGY PRODUCTION 7 Produce more energy per rated watt X PANEL High year one performance delivers 8-10% more energy per rated watt. 3 This advantage increases over time, producing 21% more energy over the first 25 years to meet your needs. 4 Maxeon Solar Cells: Fundamentally better. Engineered for performance, designed for durability. Engineered for peace of mind Designed to deliver consistent, trouble-free energy over a very long lifetime. 4,5 Designed for durability The Sun Maxeon Solar Cell is the only cell built on a solid copper foundation. Virtually impervious to the corrosion and cracking that degrade Conventional Panels. 4,5 Same excellent durability as E-Series panels. #1 Ranked in Fraunhofer durability test % power maintained in Atlas 25 + comprehensive PVDI Durability test Year Energy Production / Watt Year 1 Energy Advantage / Watt 120% 110% 100% 90% 80% 70% 60% 9% more, year 1 Sun X-Series Conventional 21% More Energy Per Rated Watt 50% Years 10% 8% 6% 4% 2% 0% Maintains High at High Temps No Light-Induced Degradation High Average Watts Better Low-Light and Spectral Response High-Performance Anti-Reflective Glass 36% more, year 25 1 MOST ENERGY PER WATT PHOTON 2012 FIELD TEST Awarded to Sun E-Series.
