The SunGold Power 450 Watt Bifacial N-Type Monocrystalline Solar Panel Collects Reflected Light Through Its Rear Glass for Extra Energy on Open Mounts

The SunGold Power 450 Watt Bifacial N-Type Monocrystalline Solar Panel (model SGN-450-BDG5) is a dual glass module that makes power from both its front and rear faces. It uses 96 N-type cells (182 x 210mm), reaches 22.5% module efficiency and is UL 61730 certified by ETL and CEC listed.

It is made for installations where the back of the array is exposed to reflected light, such as flat roofs, ground brackets, vertical surfaces and poles. SunGold says the rear side can harvest up to an additional 30% energy. We sell it in packs of 2 to 20 identical panels, in steps of two.


SunGold Power 450 Watt Bifacial N-Type Monocrystalline Solar Panel Features

Bifacial Dual Glass Construction

A 2.0mm anti-reflection front glass and a 2.0mm heat-strengthened back glass sandwich the cells, held in a black anodized aluminum alloy frame. Its bifaciality is rated at 80 ±10%.

Up to 30% More Energy From the Rear Side

Light reflected onto the back of the module adds to its output. At a 13.5% rear-to-front irradiance ratio, the panel is rated at 499W, with 17.78A short circuit current and 16.59A at maximum power.

22.5% Efficient N-Type Cells

At standard test conditions the front side produces 450W at 30.08V and 14.97A, with a 0 to +5W tolerance. N-type cells have no LID, and SunGold says a 30-year lifespan brings 10-30% more power than conventional P-type modules.

Better Output in Partial Shade

Enhanced light trapping and optimized current collection improve both power output and reliability, including under partial shading. A design built for lower operating current also reduces hot spot loss.

Stable Production in Snow

The dual-sided design captures reflected light and helps clear snow, so production holds up through winter. The panel is certified for 5400 Pa of snow load and 2400 Pa of wind load, and it passed a 35mm hailstone test.

Flexible Mounting and Long Leads

The module fits flat roofs, ground brackets, vertical surfaces and poles. Each panel has an IP68 junction box with 3 diodes and 1200mm (47.24 in) leads of 4mm² (12 AWG) wire with MC4-compatible connectors.

Warranty With 0.40% Annual Degradation

SunGold provides a 12-year material and workmanship warranty and a 30-year linear power warranty, with 0.40% annual degradation over 30 years.


Real-World Applications

Ground-mounted arrays. Mount on ground brackets with open space behind the panels so the rear glass can collect reflected light.

Flat roofs. Install on a flat roof, where the back of the array is exposed to reflected light.

Vertical surfaces and poles. Mount on a vertical surface or a pole, where the rear face can still collect light.

Snowy sites. Keep winter production steady, with reflected light from snow reaching the rear face.


How It Compares to Common Alternatives

Versus monofacial panels. A panel with an opaque backsheet only produces power from the front. This bifacial module adds rear-side energy whenever the back of the array sees reflected light, and SunGold says it can generate up to 30% more energy than conventional panels.

Versus conventional P-type modules. N-type cells don't suffer from LID. SunGold says that over 30 years this brings 10-30% more power generation than conventional P-type modules.

Versus single glass modules. Glass on both faces protects the cells front and back. SunGold says its dual glass modules offer higher durability in rough heat, cold, snow and wind.


Is This Bifacial Solar Panel the Right Fit

  • Mounting. Rear-side gain needs light reaching the back of the panel. A flush roof mount will see little of that extra energy.
  • Current. Short circuit current is 16.05A at standard test conditions and 17.78A with rear-side gain. The maximum rated fuse current is 30A. Check that your charge controller or inverter input can handle it.
  • Voltage. Open circuit voltage is 35.03V per panel, with a 1500V maximum system voltage.
  • Size. Each panel is 69.37 x 44.65 x 1.38 inches and 53.35 lbs.

This may be a good fit if

  • You have a ground mount or flat roof with open space behind the panels
  • You get regular snow in winter
  • You want N-type cells and a 30-year linear power warranty
  • You want dual glass construction

Common Questions

How Much Extra Energy Does the Rear Side Add?

Up to an additional 30%, depending on how much light reaches the back. At a 13.5% rear-to-front irradiance ratio, the panel is rated at 499W.

Where Should a Bifacial Panel Be Mounted?

Anywhere the back of the array is exposed to reflected light. Flat roofs, ground brackets, vertical surfaces and poles all work.

Will the Current Work With My Charge Controller?

Check your controller or inverter's maximum input current. The panel's short circuit current is 16.05A at standard test conditions and 17.78A with rear-side gain.

Is the 450W Bifacial Panel Waterproof?

Yes. It has an IP68-rated junction box and glass on both faces.
