Why do the solar installation have to have the Sunpower Perfomance panels?
Fire and storm proof
With the "glass-glass" construction and POE encapsulation, they withstand hailstones up to 45mm and have double Class A fire certification. It is the maximum safety and robustness for your roof, without compromise.
Zero worries
The secret? Flexible connections and parallel circuits. This prevents microcracks and hot spots, common problems in other panels. A safer and more efficient design that guarantees optimal performance without interruptions.
More savings and maximum lifespan
The N-type TOPCon photovoltaic cell in these panels degrades much less (0.4% annually). This means more energy, more savings, and the certainty of a reliable investment for more than 30 years.
A solution for your roof that is very difficult to match
- The solar panel is not just another item.
- It's what determines everything.
- It's the core of the system.
All solar panels look the same. An aluminum frame, a color that's more or less dark. This makes you think that all panels work the same way...
But that's not true.
The real difference, the one that determines the energy you'll produce for the next 30 years, isn't visible, it's inside the solar panel.
Now, with your request you will be able to download the tool that no other company can offer you, the "Solar Solutions Comparator", with a list of what you should keep in mind to make your decision.

Enjoy the energy and savings of an extra panel at no cost and maximize the performance of your roof for three decades.
- A homeowner and/or business owner looking for a long-term investment to increase the efficiency and value of their property.
- A person who values the security of knowing their solar installation is protected by extensive warranties and professional installation.
- A conscious consumer looking for a sustainable and efficient solution, designed to respect the environment from start to finish.
- Someone who prioritizes quality and efficiency over price, seeking maximum performance without compromise.
If you are looking for a generic catalog solution, this might not be the best option for you, as we offer a customized design to maximize your savings.
Hello, I'm Frederic Andreu, Chemical Engineer from the Sarrià Chemical Institute (IQS) and postgraduate in renewable energy from the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC).

Have you ever heard that houses are not started with the roof? Well, for engineers, when we talk about solar energy and energy self-sufficiency, it's exactly the opposite. And that's because, precisely on the roof, is where solar panels, the key element of self-consumption installations, transform sunlight into the electricity that will power your life.
And not knowing this can cost you a lot of money.

Frequently asked questions
What makes SunPower Performance panels superior to other panels?
SunPower Performance solar panels stand out due to their advanced technology and robust construction. Their key features include:
- N-Type TOPCon cell technology: They use phosphorus-doped silicon with a special layer that reduces energy losses.
- Shingled cell design: The cells overlap to maximize surface area, and in case of shading, the panel continues to produce energy in other areas.
- Flexible connections: These prevent the cells from breaking or developing micro-cracks, a common issue in other panels caused by temperature changes.
- Glass-on-glass construction: This structure makes them extremely resistant to hail impact, moisture, and fire. Additionally, it allows for energy generation on both sides (bifacial).
How do shadows affect energy production with SunPower Performance panels?
The shingled design of SunPower Performance solar panels significantly reduces the impact of shadows. Unlike conventional panels, which work like a series circuit and can stop producing almost completely if one part is shaded, the shingled design creates multiple parallel circuits. This means that if a shadow affects a small area, the rest of the panel continues to generate energy at almost full capacity.
What is the warranty for SunPower Performance panels?
SunPower Performance panels come with a 30-year triple warranty, which covers:
- Product: A warranty against manufacturing defects.
- Power: A generation warranty, ensuring the panels will maintain 87% of their original power after 30 years.
- Service: The warranty includes full panel replacement, covering shipping costs and installer labor.
Are SunPower Performance panels more expensive?
While the initial cost may be slightly higher, their technology and durability make them a very profitable long-term investment. Their ability to produce more energy for more years, minimal degradation, and extensive warranties result in substantial savings and greater peace of mind for decades.
How resistant are these panels to weather conditions?
Thanks to their glass-on-glass construction and POE encapsulant, SunPower Performance panels have extreme durability. They are certified to withstand hail impacts of up to 45 mm, exceeding usual standards. They are also highly resistant to dust, sand, and salt spray, making them ideal for coastal areas.
