Solar Module Astronergy ASTRO N7s CHSM48RN(DG)F-BH 465

N-type refers to the doping of the silicon in the solar cell. N-type cells show lower light-induced degradation (LID) and a lower temperature coefficient compared to classic P-type cells. In practice, this means more stable yields over the years and higher performance in heat – a noticeable advantage, especially in summer.

In a glass-glass construction, the back side is also sealed with glass instead of a plastic film, making the module particularly durable and weather-resistant. Bifacial means that the cells also convert light reflected from the back into electricity – on light surfaces like flat roofs or snow, this results in additional yield.

A 465 Wp module in Austria, with good south orientation, generates around 420 to 510 kWh per year, depending on location, tilt, and shading. At an electricity price of 25 ct/kWh, this corresponds to an annual saving of approximately 105 to 128 Euros per module – due to the bifacial additional yield, the value can be slightly higher depending on the surface.

For a typical annual consumption of 4500 to 5500 kWh, around 18 to 24 modules of this class are recommended, corresponding to a system size of approximately 8 to 11 kWp. This way, you cover a large part of your own consumption and create reserves for a heat pump or electric car. The exact number of modules depends on the roof area, orientation, and a possible battery storage.

Yes. The robust glass-glass construction with a black frame is designed for high mechanical loads and withstands snow and wind loads as well as hail well. N-type cells also operate efficiently at low temperatures, making the module suitable for locations at higher altitudes and with harsh winters. Always observe the permissible load values in the datasheet for your mounting situation.

Astronergy is an international manufacturer of photovoltaic modules and part of the Chint Group. The company has been producing mono and N-type modules for many years and is well established in the European market. The ASTRO series stands for modern cell technology and durable module constructions.
