LCSOLAR LC182N-120MDB series is a high-performance 480-500W N-type bifacial solar module, built on industry-leading 182mm N-type monocrystalline silicon cells with advanced SMBB half-cell technology, engineered exclusively for utility scale solar farms, EPC contractors, commercial project owners, solar distributors and system integrators. With a maximum conversion efficiency up to 23.1%, 80±5% bifaciality, ultra-low degradation and exceptional low-light performance, this module delivers consistently higher energy yield, lower levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and superior long-term reliability for large-scale PV installations worldwide. Fully compliant with mainstream international certification standards and supporting 1500V maximum system voltage, it is perfectly optimized for the design and construction requirements of commercial and utility solar projects.
With a maximum module efficiency of up to 23.1% and power output ranging from 480W to 500W, this series leverages advanced SMBB half-cell technology to minimize series resistance and optical loss, drastically improving current collection efficiency. Its 80±5% bifaciality unlocks additional power generation from the rear side via reflected and diffused light, boosting overall energy yield by up to 25% (depending on installation environment) compared to conventional monofacial modules. For large-scale projects, this higher output per module reduces the total number of modules, mounting structures, cables and land area required, directly cutting initial capital expenditure (CAPEX) and improving project internal rate of return (IRR).
N-type solar cells feature inherently ultra-low light-induced degradation (LID) and industry-leading potential-induced degradation (PID) resistance, outperforming traditional P-type modules by a wide margin. With a temperature coefficient of Pmax at only -0.28%/°C, the module maintains stable and outstanding performance even in high-temperature environments. Its exceptional low-light performance ensures consistent power generation during dawn, dusk and overcast weather, maximizing annual energy production. Minimized power degradation guarantees more stable energy output over the full project lifecycle, reducing operational expenditure (OPEX) and maximizing long-term revenue for your solar assets.
The module adopts 2.0×2.0mm AR coated heat strengthened glass paired with a high-strength anodized aluminum alloy frame, delivering a front-side maximum static loading of up to 5400Pa and rear-side loading of 2400Pa. It has passed rigorous testing for 25mm hailstone impact at 23m/s, with an ultra-wide operating temperature range from -40°C to +85°C. The IP68 rated junction box provides full protection against harsh outdoor conditions, including heavy rain, dust and extreme humidity. This superior mechanical strength and weather resistance reduces the risk of module damage in extreme weather events, lowering maintenance costs and project downtime risk, and making it suitable for complex installation scenarios including ground mount, floating solar and agro-photovoltaic systems.
This series supports a maximum system voltage of up to 1500V DC, fully compatible with mainstream inverters and mounting systems in the global market. It features a 0~+3% positive power output tolerance, completely eliminating underperformance risk for your project. Equipped with 4mm² output cables (length customizable) and MC4 compatible connectors, it enables fast and convenient on-site installation. The 1500V system compatibility significantly reduces the number of string circuits required, cutting balance of system (BOS) costs dramatically; its standardized design and customizable accessories simplify on-site construction, shorten project timelines, and reduce labor costs for EPC contractors.
