Elevate your home's energy independence with the LEDVANCE 440W TopCon Bifacial Full Black Solar Panel (M 440 N 48 RB-BB-F7). Designed for UK homeowners aiming for superior energy yields and long-lasting performance, this panel incorporates cutting-edge TopCon and bifacial technology. Reduce your electricity bills amidst changing energy tariffs and make a smart investment in residential solar energy for your house.
Maximise Energy Harvest with TopCon Bifacial Cells
This panel utilises advanced N-Type TopCon cell technology, offering higher efficiency (up to 22.02% according to the datasheet) than many standard panels. Furthermore, its bifacial design means it can capture reflected and ambient light from the rear side, potentially boosting overall energy generation depending on the installation specifics. This makes it one of the best solar panels for home UK installations aiming to maximise output.
- High front-side power output: 440 Watts (STC).
- Efficient energy conversion: 22.02% module efficiency.
- Bifacial gain: Absorbs light from both sides for potentially more power.
- Excellent performance: Features a good temperature coefficient (-0.290%/K Pmax) for reliable output in varying conditions.
Consider pairing these efficient PV panels with compatible Solar Inverters and potentially Solar Batteries for a complete solar energy home system.
Robust Glass-Glass Design & Comprehensive Warranty
Built for endurance, this panel features a glass-glass construction. LEDVANCE highlights that this offers improved protection against moisture ingress, mechanical loads (rated up to 5400 Pa front load), and provides enhanced fire protection compared to traditional glass-backsheet panels. Strict quality control limits the potential for PID (Potential Induced Degradation). LEDVANCE backs this quality with strong warranties, detailed on their guarantee webpage:
- Product Warranty: 25 years.
- Performance Warranty: 30 years linear power output.
Ensure longevity with professional installation using appropriate Solar Mounting Systems and high-quality Solar Cabling.
Sleek Full Black Appearance
Maintain your home's aesthetic appeal. The panel features a uniform full-black design, from the dark blue cells to the black anodized aluminum frame, ensuring a visually integrated and sophisticated look on your roof.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the LEDVANCE 440W panel suitable for the UK climate?
Yes. Thanks to its low temperature coefficient (-0.290%/K) and bifacial design, this panel performs well even under cloudy conditions common in the UK. The robust glass-glass build also enhances durability against wind and moisture.
Can this panel be used with a solar battery system?
Absolutely. The LEDVANCE 440W panel is fully compatible with most modern solar battery systems, including Evergy’s range of solar batteries. It works particularly well in setups aiming for energy self-sufficiency.
What’s the expected lifespan of this solar panel?
This panel is backed by a 25-year product warranty and a 30-year linear performance warranty, reflecting LEDVANCE’s confidence in its long-term reliability. With proper installation, you can expect decades of dependable use.
What makes TopCon cells different from regular solar cells?
TopCon (Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact) technology improves efficiency, reduces degradation over time, and performs better in low light compared to traditional PERC cells. It's one of the most advanced N-Type technologies currently available.
How does bifacial technology benefit my energy yield?
Bifacial panels like this one can absorb sunlight from both the front and rear sides. If installed above reflective surfaces (e.g. light gravel, flat roof membranes), the rear-side gain can boost your overall energy generation significantly.
Is this panel a good choice for residential solar systems?
Yes – this panel is designed with residential applications in mind. Its full-black design blends seamlessly with modern rooftops, while the high power output and warranty make it a smart long-term investment for UK homes.
What size is the LEDVANCE 440W solar panel?
The panel measures 1762 x 1134 x 30 mm and weighs 24.5kg, making it compact enough for rooftop installations while delivering powerful performance.
