540W Neostar 3P+ N-Type Dual-Glass ABC 60 Cell Black Frame MC4-EVO2A Gen 3

540W Neostar 3P+ N-Type Dual-Glass ABC 60 Cell Black Frame MC4-EVO2A Gen 3

The Aiko Neostar 3P+ 540W N-Type Dual-Glass ABC Gen 3 (Part No: AIK-A-MCE60-540-BF-DG-G3) is a third-generation bifacial solar panel built around Aiko's All Back Contact (ABC) Infinite Technology. By placing all electrical contacts on the rear of each cell, the module reaches a 24.4% module efficiency with zero front-side busbar shading. Rigid 2+2 mm dual-glass construction, a black anodised aluminium frame, and a 30-year linear performance warranty make this one of the most capable residential solar panels available today.

Key Features
ABC All Back Contact Technology

All contacts sit on the rear face, eliminating front busbar shading entirely. This N-Type ABC architecture delivers 24.4% module efficiency — measurably ahead of PERC or TOPCon panels at comparable wattage.

Dual-Glass Bifacial Construction

2.0 + 2.0 mm coated semi-tempered glass replaces conventional backsheet for moisture resistance and rigidity. The bifacial design captures energy from reflected rear irradiance, boosting real-world yield above the STC figure.

Partial Shading Optimisation

Aiko's ABC anti-shading technology maintains output under partial obstruction. The IP68 junction box includes 3 bypass diodes — ideal for UK roofs with chimneys, aerials, or intermittent shadow from neighbouring structures.

Ultra-Low Degradation · Class-Leading Warranty

N-Type chemistry resists LID and PID. Guaranteed ≤1% Year 1 then ≤0.35%/yr to Year 30, with ≥88.85% output at Year 30. Backed by a 25-year product and 30-year linear performance warranty.

Superior Temperature Coefficient

At −0.26%/°C, power loss on hot days is far less than conventional panels (−0.34% to −0.40%/°C). This compounds across 30 years, delivering measurably more annual kWh in the UK's variable climate.

Awards, Certification & Black Frame Aesthetic

BloombergNEF Tier 1 · Intersolar AWARD 2023 · Red Dot Design Award 2023 — the world's first XBC module to win Red Dot. The black anodised frame and 30 mm slim profile deliver a premium finish on any roofline.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes ABC technology different from TOPCon or PERC?
ABC (All Back Contact) puts every electrical contact on the rear of the cell, so the entire front surface absorbs light with zero busbar shading — unlike TOPCon and PERC which retain front-side busbars. The result is 24.4% module efficiency here, and N-Type chemistry also eliminates LID (Light-Induced Degradation) common in P-Type PERC panels.
Is this panel MCS certified for UK grid-connected use?
Yes — MCS certified, required for UK grid-connected PV and Smart Export Guarantee (SEG) eligibility. Its IEC Class A fire rating satisfies UK building regulations and DNO requirements. Must be installed by an MCS-accredited installer per MCS 012.
How much extra energy does the bifacial design produce?
Under Aiko's BNPI test (1,000 + 135 W/m² front/rear), output reaches 570W. With 5% rear gain: 567W; 10%: 594W. Light-coloured membranes, white ballast trays, or raised ground mounts maximise bifacial harvest in UK installations.
How does the 30-year linear performance warranty work?
Aiko guarantees ≥98% output in Year 1, declining no more than 0.35%/yr from Year 2 — a minimum 88.85% at Year 30, with no step-down cliff edges. Munich Re insurance backing is available for commercial projects.
