The VSUN (Vietnam Sunergy) datasheet guarantees at least 19.8% module efficiency for the 370 W class. 370 W over 2.16 m² equals about 171 W per square meter.
PVWatts v8 with typical-year weather gives about 620 kWh per year per 370 W panel in Los Angeles and about 679 kWh in Palmdale (20° roof, facing south, 14% system losses).
With γ = −0.339 %/°C, at a 77 °C cell temperature (hottest modeled hour in Palmdale) output is about 17.5% below the STC rating.
With the Tesla 1538000-xx-y (max DC 600 V, MPPT from 60 V, datasheet) in Los Angeles the calculator gives 3–13 panels per string (Voc at 2 °C = 44 V, Vmp at 74 °C cell = 28.2 V). Final design must follow the inverter manual and NEC 690.7.
Voltage check against the APsystems (Alt Power System) datasheet: Voc when cold 44 V vs max input 60 V; Vmp when hot 28.2 V vs MPPT low 28 V; recommended module power 265–570 W. Confirm on the microinverter maker’s compatibility list.
30 years linear on performance (manufacturer datasheet).
Yes, bifaciality 70 ± 5%. Rear gain depends on mounting height and ground reflectance.
VSUNxxx-120BMH was a PVEL Top Performer in 2023, 2024 (DH, LID+LETID, MSS, PID, TC).
