Panasonic Announces The Launch of New HIT N295 PV Module For Europe

Panasonic has announced the launch of its new HIT N295 solar module for the European market. The company is touting it as the most powerful sub-1.6m² solar panel available on the continent. It provides installers with one of the most comprehensive, flexible solar offerings on the market to deliver more power on any roof says the company.

The N295 combines a compact module size with Panasonic’s high performance technology, offering 19.1% panel efficiency. Measuring less than 150 cm in length, the compact design of the N295 will empower European residential solar installers to maximize their customers’ available roof space by installing an additional module row, particularly for smaller, restricted roofs.

“The N295 represents another milestone in our quest to continually deliver improved technology and solar solutions for European installers”, said Daniel Roca, Senior Business Developer for Panasonic. “Having listened to our customers and identified the vast variations of roof sizes and characteristics across Europe, we have engineered this uniquely compact and powerful module to provide installers with the greatest flexibility possible when designing their customers’ solar systems.”

The N295 follows the launch of Panasonic’s HIT N325/330, which was released to European installers in March 2016.

The company has identified Italy as a country particularly well suited for the N295’s compact size, delivering a tailor-made, low-footprint system very close to the often targeted output figure of 3 kWp for the Italian domestic market.

Panasonic’s N295 will be available to installers in late October 2016.
