When to Use 144 Cell 535w Solar Panel？
Hyperion (Runergy) 535W Solar Panel 144 Cells Bifacial HY ...
Hyperion (Runergy) DH144P8-535 is a PV module fit for both residential and commercial applications. Hyperion (Runergy) engineers made the HY series durable and efficient while minimizing the amount of useful space required for their operation. The Passivated Emitter Rear Contact (PERC) technology ensures excellent power output. This solar cell type employs an additional reflective layer to absorb more sunlight.
OUSHANG SOLAR are exported all over the world and different industries with quality first. Our belief is to provide our customers with more and better high value-added products. Let's create a better future together.
To further boost the performance, Hyperion (Runergy) employs half-cut cell technology. Each of the panel’s 144 cells is only half the size of a traditional solar cell. This grants DH144P8-535 lower resistive losses and better shade tolerance. Given its size and weight, DH144P8-535 efficiency of 20.7% is quite impressive. And while conventional panels use only one side to absorb photons, bifacial modules employ both sides at the same time. Thanks to the technology, this model can be up to 30% more efficient. Novel design solutions allow this panel to look as well as it performs. This model is just 1.38" in depth and is jet black with a sleek finish. The panel's functionality and durability are not affected by its aesthetic appeal though. Hyperion (Runergy) provides 12 years of product warranty and guarantees that after 30 years, performance will be at 84.95% or more.

Increased efficiency of up to 20.7 percent
DH144P8-535 ensures maximum power production. The combination of PERC technology and a powerful antireflective coating results in 20.7 percent module efficiency. This is much greater than the average, resulting in significant extra savings over the years of production.
Heat-resistant performance
The heat is less of a threat with this module: with one of the lowest temperature coefficients in the industry, DH144P8-535 loses just -0.35% of efficiency for every 1.8°F above 77°F.
High quality standards
Hyperion (Runergy) stringent production requirements include various tests to guarantee high quality. The facilities are highly automated, allowing the manufacturer to maintain high standards while keeping warranty claims to a minimum.

Low degradation for increased longevity
In the first year of service, these panels will lose no more than 2% of their power output. The average yearly power drop from the second to the 30th year will be no more than 0.45%. After 30 years, the modules will retain more than 84.95% of their initial output.
Certified for the worst environmental conditions
DH144P8-535 is PID, salt, acid, and ammonia resistant. It can also bear mechanical loads of up to Pa on the front and Pa on the back. This durability is mostly owing to the 1.38" thick aluminum alloy frame and a layer of protective glass.
Stunning black aesthetics
The sleek, all-black aesthetics of the panel will complement any rooftop. By using a variety of treatments and selection criteria, the producer guarantees high quality cell color. Engineers at Hyperion (Runergy) employ smaller gauge wires to link the cells together, creating a seamless appearance.

system sizing and panel selection-help please
I am limited to 25 panel of similar size.
the decision is between Lumina1 SS9-72HD 535 panel vs Philadelphia 144-550w panel.
the inverter of interest is the SRNE-HESP thanks to @42OhmsPA guidance.
the specs are below with my newbie calculation (adjusting for low temp of -3C for my location.)
Please comment on:
1/ 72 cells vs 144 cells panel type in general and which panels would you choose .
2/ temperature calculation
3/ string and system sizing
4/ anything helpful.
thank you

Personally I would go with the Philadelphia solar since they are slightly more efficient being 144 cell.
6S2P per MPPT is the best option for 24 panels, you've already figured that out.
I wouldn't have any concerns being slightly over the "max" current input. In ideal conditions you will lose out on a little bit of power but it will be negligible in the grand scheme of things.
My MPPTs are W 22A limit.
Here's what happens you hit the max.
...nothing, the MPPT just stops taking power in.
Your math looks good to me, nice well laid out post too.
I'm sure some others will chime in soon enough. I haven't double-checked the math, but 6s2p could be 6s oriented SE or SSE and the other 6s oriented SW or SSW. Then likely no clipping at all.
It will reduce depth of cycle of battery, charges earlier in the day an keeps charged later.
Looks like from your figures, only standard test conditions might exceed 25A. NMOT does not.
is 25A max operating current, or max allowed short-circuit current? The data sheets I've found are for different model and don't clarify that.
On the other hand, if you have NEM 2.0 reservation with PG&E, then you may want to favor late afternoon production. But maybe not, since although price is 1.5x or 2x as high, production is reduced when not due South.
Panels are cheap. Batteries are more expensive, unless DIY. So I recommend over-paneling.
25 panels fit? So roof mount? I guess you will have 24 panels as 2x 6s2p.
I see the pallet of 31 is same price as 26 individual panels (It is recommended to buy a couple extra in case broken in shipping or installation.)
Not knowing how they differ, it would seem $ less is the way to go. About 3% less STC wattage rating, only 1.5% less CEC PTC rating.
If you do have 2 strings of different orientations, you may be able to parallel another 6 if you can fit them somewhere. Like vertical on a fence?

thank you for pointing out the the lumina is 144 cells.
Thankyou both Hedges and 42OhmsPA for commenting. I agree that 144 cell (or half cut in general) is a good safe choice. I think it's more likely to hedge against a newbie design error, than it is to confuse an MPPT. Depending on when your main power usage is, it may not really matter (IE if you mostly want to chop summer loads back, you're probably massively overproducing anyway so the half cut giving you an extra 30 min of low angle production, and 0.5% efficiency boost, isn't that much $)
I would recommend holding off on buying the inverter until you have the full inverter + battery approvals (from AHJ and POCO) in hand. With potential tariff changes, there's an argument to buy a more expensive, known quantity for California approval, inverter and battery sooner.
I found this datasheet and it says 25A max input but NO max ISC. Typo? The Euro 230V one has different specs. I don't know if there's an official way in NEC to scale from max input current to max ISC. I think it is fine but I worry about warranty and plan check
Solar panels IMO are mostly determined by how they fit your roof. They do have a different risk (IE, turned out to have missing certifications; can be really expensive to return. If the solar panel can be found in the interconnection application web app it's probably not that bad of a risk).

This is the one I am following to see that the 12kpv gets listed, before I start my ESS interconnection application. IT covers the inverter and battery combinationI don't see SRNE on there, so it might just not be approved in this manner, or they delegated approval to a different company & it's showing up as a different name
Alternatively I might just do 18kpv, there's some followup work on my house I dream of doing, which that can help with.
