Chinese PV module maker JinkoSolar launched its new Tiger Neo 5.0 module series at the SNEC 2026 trade show in Shanghai, China.

The company said the product represents an upgrade from its earlier 670 W Tiger Neo 3.0 module. It delivers up to 700 W of output at the same module size as the previous generation, with module efficiency of 25.91% and power density of more than 259 W/m².

The panel uses a high-purity homogeneous silicon substrate, broad-spectrum light-trapping structure, full-area passivation and gap-free cell-array encapsulation to improve conversion efficiency and module-level output.

The company is positioning the module for utility-scale ground-mounted projects, commercial and industrial bifacial applications and residential monofacial systems. In comparison to Tiger Neo 3.0, Tiger Neo 5.0 can reportedly increase power generation by 2.1% in utility-scale ground-mounted projects, 1.9% in commercial and industrial bifacial scenarios and 0.9% in residential monofacial applications.

The module has a bifaciality of over 85%, a temperature coefficient of -0.26%/C, first-year degradation of no more than 1% and annual linear degradation of 0.35%, according to the company.

JinkoSolar also said the module displayed stronger performance under partial shading in third-party testing, with lower power losses than comparable products under light and moderate shading conditions.

No further technical details about the new product were revealed.

Alongside the Tiger Neo 5.0, JinkoSolar introduced a scenario-based module portfolio covering six application categories. The portfolio includes its Dust-Resistant module, which uses a three-dimensional anti-dust design and nano-coated glass to reduce operation and maintenance costs, and its AIDC module designed for data centers, with the company claiming more than 3% higher lifecycle power generation and an 88.6% reduction in system risk costs.

The portfolio also featured the company’s Safety Guardian module designed for high-reliability applications, with resistance to 55 mm hail, dual Class A fire certification and high mechanical load capacity and its Anti-Glare module with a reflectance of 7% that targets transport hubs and other sites where light pollution is a concern.

The portfolio is rounded out by the LiteTitan module, which weighs 7 kg/m² for load-restricted rooftops, and the Mount Tai module, which features a strengthened frame for harsh environments such as deserts and wastelands.
