Solyco has launched its full-black Design R-BG 108nBC.7 module series, featuring n-type back-contact glass-glass technology, up to 500 W output, 24.5% efficiency, and a 30-year warranty for premium rooftop solar applications.

German manufacturer Solyco Solar AG has introduced a new module series combining n-type back-contact (BC) cell technology with a full-black glass-glass design aimed at premium residential and commercial rooftop installations.

“The innovative rear-side cell interconnection reduces front-side shading losses and enhances performance under partial shading conditions,” the company’s Marketing Manager, Jussi Larkovuo, told pv magazine. “The completely black design enables seamless architectural integration and a sophisticated roof appearance.”

The Solyco Design R-BG 108nBC.7/485-500 solar modules are available in four power classes from 485 W to 500 W, with the top variant reaching a conversion efficiency of 24.5% across a module area of 2.04 m².

The series uses 108 monocrystalline n-type back-contact half-cells, measuring 182 mm × 98 mm, and features a bifacial nameplate irradiance (BNPI) rating of 526 W to 542 W with a bifaciality factor of up to 75%. The dual-glass construction consists of 2 mm tempered front and rear glass, combined with a black anodized aluminum frame, resulting in a 24.8 kg module equipped with Stäubli MC4-Evo 2 connectors and 4 mm² solar cables.
