Bifacial Solar Technology for Additional Energy Production
Canadian Solar’s BiHiKu panels are designed to produce electricity from sunlight reaching both the front and rear surfaces.
The front surface provides the module’s rated power output, while the rear surface can capture reflected sunlight from the ground, nearby structures, and other surroundings.
Canadian Solar’s datasheet illustrates potential additional rear-side generation under favorable conditions. Actual gains depend on ground reflectivity, mounting height, tilt angle, row spacing, and shading.
Polycrystalline PERC Solar Cell Technology
The BiHiKu series uses polycrystalline PERC cells with a half-cut cell arrangement to improve light utilization and reduce internal electrical losses.
This design helps manage hot-spot temperatures and supports consistent energy production under varying sunlight conditions.
Dual-Glass Construction for Long-Term Reliability
Each BiHiKu module features protective glass on both sides, allowing light to reach the rear solar cells while providing a durable outdoor enclosure.
The anodized aluminum frame and weather-resistant junction box help support reliable operation in demanding installation environments.
Well Suited for Ground-Mounted Solar Arrays
Ground-mounted installations can take advantage of bifacial solar technology by allowing more reflected sunlight to reach the rear surface of the panels.
Elevated mounting structures and reflective ground surfaces, such as light-colored gravel, may help increase rear-side energy production. Actual results depend on site conditions and array design.
Bulk Solar Panels for Larger Projects
This 35-panel package offers a convenient way to source matching solar modules for larger residential, agricultural, and commercial installations.
Purchasing solar panels in bulk can simplify procurement, system planning, and installation scheduling for contractors and property owners.
Applications
- Residential ground-mounted solar systems.
- Commercial solar installations.
- Farms, ranches, and agricultural properties.
- Elevated solar arrays with rear-side sunlight exposure.
- Solar installations over reflective ground surfaces.
- Compatible rooftop solar systems.
- Grid-connected photovoltaic installations.
- Off Grid Solar Systems with compatible equipment.
- Contractor and installer bulk solar panel purchases.
Final solar string design must account for the module’s electrical ratings, expected temperature conditions, and potential bifacial current gains. Verify inverter and mounting system compatibility before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many Canadian Solar panels are included in this pallet?
This package includes 35 Canadian Solar BiHiKu 390W bifacial solar panels, providing 13.65kW of rated front-side DC capacity.
Are Canadian Solar BiHiKu 390W panels bifacial?
Yes. The CS3W-390PB-AG uses bifacial solar cells that can generate electricity from sunlight reaching both the front and rear surfaces of the module.
Are these solar panels monocrystalline or polycrystalline?
These panels use polycrystalline PERC solar cell technology with a half-cut cell design.
How much additional energy can bifacial solar panels produce?
Canadian Solar’s BiHiKu datasheet illustrates potential rear-side power gains of up to 30% under specified conditions. Actual additional production depends on mounting configuration, shading, and ground reflectivity and is not guaranteed.
Can these panels be used for ground mount solar?
Yes. Ground-mounted solar installations can be particularly suitable for bifacial panels because elevated structures allow reflected sunlight to reach the rear surface.
Can BiHiKu panels be installed on rooftops?
Yes, provided the rooftop mounting equipment and structural design are compatible. Rear-side production may be limited when panels are mounted close to an opaque roof surface.
Can these panels work with a hybrid inverter and batteries?
Yes. The modules can be used in a properly designed solar-plus-storage system with compatible equipment. Solar string sizing must account for the module’s voltage and current ratings, including potential bifacial current increases.
What type of connectors do these panels use?
The BiHiKu series datasheet lists T4 series, H4 UTX, or MC4-EVO2 connector options. Verify the specific connector type supplied with your inventory before selecting mating connectors.
What warranty does Canadian Solar provide?
The BiHiKu series documentation lists a 12-year product warranty and a 30-year linear power output warranty, subject to the applicable manufacturer warranty terms.
Can I purchase fewer than 35 panels?
