First Solar Series 6 Plus photovoltaic (PV) modules set the industry benchmark for reliable energy production, optimized design and environmental performance. The advanced design is optimized for every stage of your application, significantly reducing balance of system, shipping, and operating costs.
More Lifetime Energy per Nameplate Watt
- Industry’s best (0.3%) warranted degradation rate
- Superior temperature coefficient, spectral response and shading behavior
- Unlike crystalline silicon modules, First Solar’s thin film technology does not experience the losses associated with LID and LeTID
- Anti-reflective coated glass enhances energy production
Innovative Module Design
- Under-mount frame provides the cleaning and snow shedding benefits of a frameless module while protecting edges against breakage
- Innovative SpeedSlots combine the robustness of bottom mounting with the speed of top clamping while utilizing fewer fasteners to achieve the industry’s fastest installation times and lowest mounting hardware costs
- Dual junction box design optimizes module-to-module
Best In-Class Reliability & Durability
- Manufactured under one roof with 100% traceable QA/QC
- Independently tested and certified for reliable performance that exceeds IEC standards in high temperature, high humidity, extreme desert and coastal applications
- Inherently immune to and warranted against power loss from cell cracking
- Durable glass/glass construction
Best Environmental Profile
- Fastest energy payback time in the industry
- Carbon footprint that is 2.5X lower and a water footprint that is 3X lower than mono crystalline silicon panels on a life cycle basis
- Global PV module recycling services available through First Solar or customer-selected third-party
