Solar Panels
A solar panel is a set of solar photovoltaic modules electrically connected and mounted on a supporting structure. A photovoltaic module is a packaged, connected assembly of solar cells. The solar panel can be used as a component of a larger photovoltaic system to generate and supply electricity in commercial and residential applications. Each module is rated by its DC output power and typically ranges from 10 to 320 watts. A single solar module can produce only a limited amount of power; most installations contain multiple modules.
A photovoltaic system typically includes:
- a panel or an array of solar modules,
- an inverter,
- sometimes a battery
- and solar charge controller.
