LONGi Official Global Datasheet and Certificate Library

LONGi HPBC, HPBC 2.0 and HBC – Solar Cell Technology Explained

LONGi’s back-contact technologies are important because they address the limitations imposed by conventional front-contact solar cell metallisation.

HPBC – Hybrid Passivated Back Contact

HPBC uses a rear-contact cell architecture to minimise front-surface shading from electrical metallisation.

This technology is associated with LONGi’s Hi-MO X6 platforms.

Its technical objective is to increase useful light absorption and improve the collection of generated electrical charge.

HPBC 2.0 – Second-Generation Back-Contact Solar Cells

HPBC 2.0 extends LONGi’s earlier technology through advanced passivation, TaiRay silicon wafers and optimised cell interconnections.

LONGi uses HPBC 2.0 in product families such as Hi-MO X10 and Hi-MO 9.

The manufacturer also describes advanced zero-busbar architecture and shading-mitigation features for selected models.

HBC – Heterojunction Back Contact

HBC combines the principles of heterojunction technology with a rear-contact arrangement.

LONGi introduced commercialised HBC photovoltaic modules within its EcoLife portfolio, including high-efficiency premium residential products.

HPBC 2.0 and HBC are different architectures and should not be treated as interchangeable.

Higher laboratory cell efficiency does not necessarily translate into the same percentage improvement in annual PV output.

Professional buyers should compare module-level characteristics and site-specific energy-yield models rather than laboratory records alone.

Official LONGi Hi-MO X10 Technology Information

LONGi Hi-MO X10 – HPBC 2.0 Modules for Residential and Commercial PV

Hi-MO X10 is one of LONGi’s advanced high-efficiency product platforms.

Built around HPBC 2.0 technology, the family includes multiple power classes and configurations for residential, commercial and specialised applications.

Hi-MO X10 should not be reduced to the three 480–490W products currently listed on the 3Buy Solar webshop.

Hi-MO X10 Explorer

Explorer modules are relevant to rooftop projects requiring high efficiency, compact module formats and careful roof-area utilisation.

3Buy Solar offers individual purchasing pages for three LR7-54HVH variants:

LR7-54HVH-480M480W23.5%Buy LONGi 480W
LR7-54HVH-485M485W23.8%Buy LONGi 485W
LR7-54HVH-490M490W24.0%Buy LONGi 490W

These three models are listed as monofacial glass-backsheet photovoltaic modules, not bifacial dual-glass products.

Hi-MO X10 Scientist

The Scientist range focuses on advanced high-efficiency back-contact performance and power density.

LONGi’s 2026 documentation identifies model families including:

  • LR7-54HVD in the 475–500W range.
  • LR7-60HVD in the 530–555W range.
  • LR7-60HVH in the 535–560W range.
  • LR7-72HVH in the 640–670W range.

These module formats target different installation conditions and must be compared using their actual physical dimensions, current ratings, warranty and manufacturer mounting instructions.

Hi-MO X10 Guardian

Guardian refers to specialised designs for particular application requirements.

Relevant configurations include:

  • Anti-Dust: Designs intended to mitigate dirt accumulation.
  • Anti-Glare: Products for projects requiring glare control.
  • Light Design: Reduced module weight for certain roof structures.
  • Fire-Resistant: Configurations designed around specified fire-performance requirements.

Environmental features are model-specific and should never be attributed to every Hi-MO X10 product.

LONGi Hi-MO X10 Light Design

LONGi has introduced lightweight Hi-MO X10 modules for roofing situations where structural load is a major design constraint.

The manufacturer has reported selected Light Design models with:

  • Module output up to 560W.
  • Efficiency up to 24.8%.
  • Module weight per area of approximately 7.2 kg/m².

For EPC contractors, the potential benefit is not limited to module efficiency. Reduced weight can affect roof reinforcement requirements, handling and the feasibility of rooftop PV.

However, lightweight construction must still be assessed against mechanical loading, approved mounting arrangements and local building requirements.

LONGi Hi-MO X10 Light Design – Manufacturer Announcement

LONGi Hi-MO X6 – Explorer, Scientist and Guardian

LONGi Hi-MO X6 is an established back-contact module family associated with the manufacturer’s earlier HPBC platform.

The range includes Explorer, Scientist and Guardian versions for different rooftop and environmental requirements.

Hi-MO X6 Explorer

Explorer products target residential and commercial applications where efficiency, available area and system economics matter.

Hi-MO X6 Scientist

Scientist variants place greater emphasis on module power density and advanced cell performance.

Hi-MO X6 Guardian

Guardian products include specialised configurations developed for particular installation challenges, such as dust or demanding environmental conditions.

The X6 platform remains relevant for project comparisons, installations already designed around these models and replacement procurement.

LONGi European Datasheet Library – Hi-MO X6

LONGi Hi-MO X6 Max – TaiRay and M11 High-Power Modules

Hi-MO X6 Max builds on LONGi’s HPBC platform using the manufacturer’s TaiRay technology and larger rectangular M11 wafer formats.

Its product families include Explorer, Scientist and Guardian Anti-Dust.

LONGi’s European documentation identifies models including:

  • Hi-MO X6 Max Explorer 455–465W.
  • Hi-MO X6 Max Scientist 470–475W.
  • Larger Explorer configurations around 605–615W.
  • Larger Scientist configurations around 620–630W.
  • Guardian Anti-Dust configurations for specialised rooftop applications.

The different module dimensions, handling requirements and power classes make exact model identification important.

Hi-MO X6 Max Guardian Anti-Dust

The Guardian Anti-Dust design addresses the accumulation of contaminants near the module edge.

This may be particularly relevant to warehouses, agricultural buildings and commercial low-tilt rooftops.

The resulting energy-yield benefit should be assessed through actual site conditions and maintenance cost assumptions rather than a universal percentage.

LONGi Hi-MO 7 – Bifacial Modules for Large-Scale Solar Projects

Hi-MO 7 is a high-efficiency bifacial module platform relevant to ground-mounted PV installations and larger commercial projects.

Bifacial photovoltaic modules can capture reflected light from surfaces behind the panels, increasing generation when installation geometry provides sufficient rear-side irradiance.

Typical applications include:

  • Ground-mounted solar farms.
  • Utility-scale PV arrays.
  • Tracker-based installations.
  • Agricultural photovoltaic projects.
  • Large commercial arrays.
  • Projects with suitable reflective ground conditions.

The important engineering parameters include bifaciality, mounting height, row spacing, albedo, shade effects and inverter current limits.

Hi-MO 7 should be compared with newer Hi-MO 9 solutions using the same energy-yield assumptions, financial modelling period and balance-of-system cost boundaries.

Official LONGi Hi-MO 7 Documentation

LONGi Hi-MO 9 – High-Efficiency Back-Contact Modules for Utility-Scale PV

LONGi Hi-MO 9 is a high-power photovoltaic module platform for large-scale solar installations.

It uses advanced HPBC 2.0 technology, with selected models offering high efficiency and bifacial generation.

In April 2025, LONGi announced an upgraded Hi-MO 9 variant reaching:

CharacteristicManufacturer-published value
Maximum rated module power670W
Maximum module efficiency24.8%
Cell technologyHPBC 2.0
Example module dimensions2382 × 1134 mm
Product positioningUtility-scale PV
Bifacial optionsAvailable in specified variants

The stated characteristics relate to the relevant manufacturer product generation and should not be assigned to every legacy Hi-MO 9 model.

Why Consider Hi-MO 9 for Solar Farms?

For utility-scale procurement, higher conversion efficiency can allow greater DC capacity within a constrained land area.

However, the economic benefit depends on the array layout, inverter architecture, electrical infrastructure, mounting system, energy yield and project location.

In ground-mounted projects, additional considerations include:

  • Bifacial energy gain.
  • Tracker compatibility.
  • Row shading.
  • Ground coverage ratio.
  • String design.
  • Module handling.
  • Long-term degradation.
  • Mechanical and environmental qualification.
  • Bankability and warranty documentation.

LONGi EcoLife and HBC – Official Manufacturer Announcement

LONGi Hi-MO 5 and Hi-MO 5m – Legacy Solar Modules

Earlier Hi-MO 5 and Hi-MO 5m module families remain relevant to existing commercial and residential installations.

These technologies may be encountered in maintenance, repair and module replacement projects.

Can New LONGi Panels Replace Older Hi-MO Modules?

Not automatically.

Even when a newer module has a similar wattage, differences in voltage, current, connector type, dimensions and mounting requirements may prevent direct substitution.

Before replacing a module, check:

  • Exact existing module reference.
  • Replacement module electrical characteristics.
  • String compatibility.
  • Module dimensions.
  • Connector compatibility.
  • Mounting arrangements.
  • Bypass diode and shading behaviour.
  • Inverter input requirements.

For older projects, it may be preferable to source a compatible module with matching electrical characteristics rather than install the latest product generation.

LONGi Solar Panel Electrical Design – Important Installer Specifications

A LONGi solar module must be electrically compatible with the selected solar inverter and string design.

The key parameters are:

Electrical parameterWhy installers need it
PmaxNominal rated module output at STC
VocOpen-circuit voltage used in maximum string-voltage calculation
VmpVoltage at maximum power
IscShort-circuit current for electrical design and protection
ImpOperating current at maximum power
Temperature coefficient of VocCold-weather voltage calculation
Temperature coefficient of PmaxExpected power change with cell temperature
Maximum system voltagePermitted PV DC system rating
Maximum series fuse ratingRelevant overcurrent protection limit
BifacialityRear-side energy performance for bifacial modules

Cold-Weather Voltage and String Length

PV module open-circuit voltage increases as cell temperature decreases.

For installations in Germany, Austria, Hungary, Slovakia, Romania, Poland and other European regions, cold-weather voltage calculations are essential.

The maximum number of modules in a series string must remain within the inverter’s PV voltage limits under the specified minimum site temperature.

Maximum PV Input Current

Modern high-efficiency modules can have relatively high operating currents.

Professional installers should verify that the intended inverter MPPT accepts the module’s operating and short-circuit current, including any parallel string configuration.

Inverter MPPT Design

Different roof orientations may require separate MPPT inputs.

An east-west array, for example, should be designed according to the inverter’s supported string configurations and electrical limits rather than automatically connecting differently oriented modules into one string.

Module Wattage Is Not a Complete System Specification

A higher nominal wattage may come from a physically larger module rather than higher efficiency.

Installers should compare power per square metre, dimensions, handling requirements and expected annual energy output.

LONGi Solar Panels for Commercial and Industrial Rooftops

Commercial and industrial solar PV projects require more than an efficient module.

The full engineering and procurement assessment should consider:

  • Usable rooftop area.
  • Wind and snow loading.
  • Roof membrane and structural condition.
  • Module size and handling.
  • Mounting-system compatibility.
  • DC string routing.
  • Inverter location.
  • Cable voltage drop.
  • System monitoring.
  • Fire-safety requirements.
  • Cleaning and maintenance.
  • Annual self-consumption and electricity exports.

LONGi Modules for Low-Tilt and East-West Flat Roofs

An east-west mounting system can make efficient use of available roof space while producing a broader daily generation profile.

Compared with a south-facing layout, the best arrangement depends on the available roof area, mounting costs, shading, annual irradiation and the project’s electrical demand profile.

For professional procurement, compare:

  • kWp installed per square metre of available roof.
  • Expected annual kWh/kWp.
  • Total annual electricity production.
  • Mounting structure and ballast cost.
  • Roof loading.
  • Installation labour.
  • Grid export limitations.
  • Consumption matching.

A higher specific yield does not necessarily mean a higher total rooftop energy yield if the mounting layout significantly reduces the installed capacity.

LONGi Solar Panel Wholesale Prices – European B2B Procurement

LONGi solar panel pricing depends on the exact product, wattage, quantity, warehouse location and delivery requirements.

A professional purchasing decision should consider both the module price and the total installed system cost.

Factors Influencing LONGi Solar Panel Cost

  • Exact module model.
  • Nominal power and efficiency.
  • Module dimensions and weight.
  • Order quantity.
  • Pallet and transport arrangement.
  • Availability and dispatch location.
  • Mounting and installation requirements.
  • Project warranty requirements.
  • Expected lifetime energy production.

Buying LONGi by Pallet or in Bulk

3Buy Solar supports enquiries for individual professional installations, full pallets, multiple pallets and larger project quantities, subject to sourcing conditions.
