Maxeon solar cell technology
Your next project deserves the most powerful, durable solar cells.
Maxeon cells have redefined the boundaries of solar for almost 40 years. They are the heart of our industry-leading solar panels but can also be used independently in all kinds of applications from space to sea.
-
Powerful
Maxeon cells create unparalleled energy output thanks to our patented design, industry-leading efficiency and high-quality manufacturing processes.
-
Durable
Built to meet challenges: Engineered for extremes, Maxeon solar cells power through all kinds of weather extremes, including heat, rain, snow, hail and salt mist, so you’ve got power when and where you need it.
-
Sleek
The back contact design of the Maxeon solar cell technology allows a seamless appearance on the surface of the cell, and actually enables the cell to capture more light than front contact cells.
Product details
-
Highest recorded efficiency
Up to 24.9% certified efficiency
Highest quality materials and production (n type silicon, patented cell design) converts more sunlight earlier in the day, later in the afternoon and in cloudy conditions
Innovative smaller size wafer (125mm) adaptable for wider range of applications
-
Trusted durability
Durable cell design flexes when others break. The metal backing protects the cell in fluctuating temperatures and conforms to curved surfaces, such as arched rooftops
Solid metal foundation prevents cracks to keep energy flowing and prevents damage from water, harsh salt mist or destructive damp heat.
Versatility to perform in many lamination processes (such as glass-glass, composite, polycarbonate)
-
Sustainable
Maxeon solar cells represent our commitment to responsible production for the planet and our communities. You can feel confident in your purchase knowing that each cell is produced with the highest quality materials and respect for human rights.
Named Top 100 most sustainable company
Strict conflict minerals policy to support responsible sourcing of raw materials
Independent assessments and a zero tolerance policy for violations of human and labor rights across supply chain

Maxeon solar cell FAQs
-
These are not Maxeon Solar Technologies sales sites. We cannot guarantee the effectiveness or safety of those cells.
-
There are a number of methods but often cell customers use a soldering iron. Also we have an instruction guide that explains how to connect the cell and tabs so feel free to contact us from the inquiry page.

Cells with a high cosmetic quality have slight color variations on the front side. After laminating, the color of the solar cells has a dark appearance even with a black background. Cells with a moderate cosmetic quality have some color variations on the front side. After laminating, the color variations on the cells became less obvious but are often still visible when inspected from short distances.
