Wider installer base in Malaysia — easier warranty claims
Shorter product warranty (12 years vs 15)
Slightly higher temperature coefficient — marginally less hot-weather output
Less aggressive long-term degradation rate

LONGi Hi-MO 7

Highest Efficiency Choice

Longer product warranty (15 years) — stronger build confidence
Best-in-class temperature coefficient (-0.26%/°C) — superior in Malaysian heat
Lower long-term degradation (0.35%/yr) — more power after 20 years
#1 most-shipped solar module brand globally since 2022
HPBC technology excels in diffuse light (cloudy days)

HPBC is newer tech — less long-term real-world data vs TOPCon

Which is Right for You?

Your ideal panel depends on your roof type, budget, and long-term priorities. Here is our recommendation by buyer profile.

Choose Jinko if...

  • Budget matters — you want the most power for the lowest cost per watt
  • You have a flat roof with a light-coloured surface (bifacial gain advantage)
  • You want a proven installer network across all Malaysian states
  • You are installing a large commercial or industrial system where price per watt dominates
  • You want slightly higher peak efficiency on the spec sheet

Choose LONGi if...

  • Long-term performance matters — you want less degradation over 25 years
  • Your roof gets extremely hot midday and you want the best temperature coefficient
  • You value a 15-year product warranty over a 12-year one
  • Your roof often has cloudy or overcast afternoons (HPBC excels in diffuse light)
  • You want the world's best-selling solar brand for resale confidence

Real-World Performance in Malaysian Climate

Malaysia's equatorial heat (30–38°C) and high humidity affect every solar panel. Here is how both brands compare in practice.

Heat Tolerance

JINKO

Good. -0.29%/°C. At 38°C ambient, panels may hit 60°C — expect 6–8% output loss vs STC.

LONGi

Better. -0.26%/°C. Same conditions result in ~5–7% output loss. Marginal but real advantage.

Humidity & Salt Mist

JINKO

IP68 rated junction box. IEC 61701 salt mist certified. Suitable for coastal Malaysian properties.

LONGi

IP68 rated junction box. IEC 61701 salt mist certified. Same protection level as Jinko.

Monsoon & Cloud Cover

JINKO

TOPCon performs well in diffuse light. 3–5% output during heavy cloud is typical.

LONGi

HPBC technology optimised for rear-contact light harvesting — marginally better on overcast days.
