The new era of back-contact, bringing together the best of SunPower’s pioneering patented technologies, leveraged through TCL’s global industrial strength and manufacturing capabilities.

Back Contact (BC) solar cells are a high-efficiency solar cell technology where both the positive and negative electrodes are placed on the backside of the cell. This design effectively reduces shading area and enhances the absorption and utilization efficiency of sunlight.
The founder of the BC technology is Dick Swanson, also founder of SunPower.
Designed for premium residential installations, SunPower Max delivers 490-505 W with efficiency up to 24.7%. Its high-density full-screen back-contact technology creates a clean, busbar-free front while supporting high energy density, lower operating temperature and reduced hotspot risk.

Power, Product & Service coverage for 30 years.
SunPower panels are manufactured for long-term durability, covering defects related to workmanship and materials for a full 30 years, versus some manufacturers that can go as low as 12 years on their warranty.
SunPower panels also account for the repair, replacement or refund of any defective panel for 30 years, with removal, shipping and installation included in Australia and New Zealand.
