Optimized Design. Lower LCOE. Superior Return.

First Solar Series 6 and Series 6 Plus photovoltaic (PV) modules set the industry benchmark for reliable energy production, optimized design and environmental performance.

Series 6

Series 6

430 - 460 watts / up to 18.6% efficiency

  • Superior temperature coefficient, spectral response and shading behavior means more energy per watt vs. conventional c-Si modules
  • Innovative under-mount frame with SpeedSlots enable the industry’s fastest installation times and lowest mounting hardware costs
  • Dual junction box design reduces wire management complexity and cost
  • Best-in-class durability and reliability
  • No power loss from LiD or LeTID
  • Immune to and warranted against power loss from cell cracking
  • Industry’s best environmental profile with the lowest carbon and water footprint, and fastest energy payback

Series 6 Plus

Series 6 Plus

440 - 470 watts / up to 18.7% efficiency

  • Includes all of the advantages of Series 6 
  • Larger form factor provides more watts per module, with minimal impact to structure design 
  • Enhanced BOS savings through fewer connections and less mounting hardware per watt
  • Series 6 Plus will be available in two product variants that are easily matched to structure zones: 
    • Interior array modules - a lighter load-compliant module that will occupy the interior rows of an array. The reduced weight enables faster install velocity
    • Exterior array modules - a higher load module that ensures an appropriately robust perimeter for an array
  • Overall lower LCOE for a competitive return on investment
