Benefits of premium high-output solar
Fewer panels, more kWh
710W+ modules deliver more energy per panel—ideal when roof space is limited or you want a cleaner layout.
Lower lifetime $/kWh
Higher wattage reduces racking, labor, and roof penetrations per kilowatt—improving long-term ROI.
Double-sided panels capture reflected light
Canadian Solar 710W bifacial modules harvest energy from both faces—generating up to 30% more power from light reflected off your roof, concrete, or tile.
Full power even when one panel is shaded
NEP microinverters optimize each panel on its own—so shade on one section, passing clouds, or partial coverage never drag down the rest of your system.
No bulky inverter box in your garage
Microinverters live under each panel on the roof—not a string inverter on your garage wall. Clean install inside and out, with nothing ugly taking up wall space.
NEP app—see every panel, every day
The included NEP integrated app shows daily solar production broken down by panel and microinverter. Watch your system work from your phone and know your investment is performing.
Battery-ready design
Systems engineered for Tesla Powerwall backup, EV charging, and future load growth.
SCE & NEM 3.0 savvy
Production models aligned with how Southern California Edison bills you today—not outdated NEM 2 assumptions.
30% federal tax credit
Qualifying equipment may be eligible for the federal ITC—we provide documentation your CPA needs.
Financing available
Cash, loan, and PPA-style options—compare true cost per kWh, not just monthly payment.
Why Solar Topper
Premium equipment, transparent pricing, and installation quality built for long-term production—not sales quotas.
710W+ panels standard
While competitors install 400–500W modules, we deploy high-output 710W+ panels so you need fewer panels for the same—or higher—production.
Site-specific engineering
No cookie-cutter layouts. Every system is modeled for your roof, shade, and SCE rate plan—including NEM 3.0 export realities.
Tesla Powerwall integration
Whole-home backup, EV charging, and outage protection designed with your solar production—not bolted on as an afterthought.

400W vs 500W vs 710W — fewer panels, more power
