The Q cELLS brand has once again set the standard in per-formance and value. Backed by the quality and technology leadership of Hanwha Q cELLS, the new Q.PEAK-G4.1 is a monocrystalline module with power classes of up to 305 wp and efficiencies as high as 18.6 %.

Q.PEAK-G4.1 modules offer higher yields from smaller spaces. Q.ANTUM is the next-generation Q CELLS module architecture that makes it possible. Q.ANTUM ensures your cells achieve and maintain outstanding performance levels — from day one, and for the life of the product.

Proprietary Q CELLS Anti LID Technology practically elimina-tes Light-Induced Degradation (LID), which can drain system performance over time. When conventional monocrystalline cells are exposed to sunlight, they lose much power. Not so with Q.PEAK-G4.1 and Q.ANTUM Anti LID Technology.

Q.PEAK-G4.1 modules also set new aesthetic standards with their black cells and frames. The all-black Q.PEAK BLK-G4.1 goes one step further, incorporating a black backsheet as well for a stunning appearance that’s sure to complement even the most exclusive residence.

The many technological advances built into the Q.PEAK-G4.1 draw an even more compelling picture:

Conventional monocrystalline cells can exhibit as much as 8 % Light-Induced Degradation (LID) in year one. Thanks to Q.ANTUM Anti LID Technolo-gy, Q.PEAK modules provide superior performance after the first year, and every year after, too. That‘s a promise Q CELLS puts in writing with its extended product guarantee.

Standard solar cells Q CELLS Q.ANTUm solar cell technology

Q.ANTUm technology has a history of breaking efficiency records. It is the perfection of advanced engineering for polycrystalline modules that has now been transferred to the monocrystalline Q.PEAK-G4.1 for high power classes and outstanding yields.

Q.ANTUm goes beyond the standard architecture and adds a rear power reflector. when rays of light hit this nano-layer, they are forced back through the silicon absorber a second time, increasing cell efficiency and output. combined with the expertise of Hanwha Q cELLS in module production, the result is a powerful and reliable Pv panel. more power than mono-BSf, better performance than mono-PErc, and better performance for the price than high-end n-type modules.

Q.ANTUM is an accomplishment achieved through a so-phisticated balance of the overall cell architecture and advances such as:

• Rear-side passivation using a functional nanolayer power reflector

• Proprietary deactivation process to minimise Light-induced Degradation (LID) on cell level

• A successful mass production process• Hanwha Q CELLS´ experience and expertise as

the largest manufacturer of solar cells worldwide

The result is an extremely efficient module that main-tains its remarkably high performance over a 25-year lifespan (83.6 % performance guaranteed in year 25).

Since Q.PEAK-G4.1 also delivers high outputs from day one, residential customers can install a smaller system or get more power from a given area. That lowers per-watt installation and Balance-of-System Costs for a significantly lower Levelised Cost of Electricity (LCOE) over the life of the system.

HIGHEr PowEr cLASSESThanks to Q.ANTUM technology, Q CELLS solar modules produce more power in a given area, resulting in higher yields at lower BOS costs.

UNPArALLELED DESIGNBlack is beautiful, and solar panels don’t have to miss out. The new Q.ANTUM modules look impressive in an elegant black and allow for cheaper logistics because of their particularly slender high-tech frames.
