PERFORMANCE 5 UPP BF
POWER RANGE: 545 – 520 W
A vertical image of a SunPower Performance 5 UPP BF solar panel, showing its dark cells and frame.
Engineered for Performance
- Smaller cells stay cooler when shaded, extending panel life³
- Proprietary encapsulant minimizes degradation from environmental exposure
- Conductive adhesive defends against daily temperature swings
- Redundant cell connections create flexible paths for continuous electricity flow
The SunPower Performance 5 UPP BF panel is engineered to meet the unique needs of solar power plants. Bifacial power generation and G12 (210mm) cell technology combine to maximise power density, while its framed glass/glass construction offers greater durability for extended panel life.
Backed by an industry-leading warranty and an estimated 35-year useful life,¹ SunPower Performance panels wrap conventional front contact cells with 35 years of materials, engineering and manufacturing expertise to mitigate the reliability challenges of Conventional Panel design.
Durability that Translates to More Energy
Engineered to stand up to environmental stresses such as shading, daily temperature swings and high humidity, the SunPower Performance 5 UPP BF is a high power panel uniquely suited for power plant EPCs and developers looking to maximize energy production.
A Track Record of Innovation Leadership
