Product type
Solar modules, also known as solar panels, are devices that convert sunlight into electrical energy. They are primarily made of photovoltaic (PV) cells, which are typically composed of silicon. When sunlight hits these cells, it creates an electric field that generates direct current (DC) electricity, which can then be converted to alternating current (AC) for use in homes and businesses.
| Material | Monocrystalline or polycrystalline silicon |
| Efficiency range | 15% to 22% |
| Typical wattage | 250W to 400W per panel |
| Dimensions | 1.6m x 1m to 2m x 1m |
| Temperature coefficient | -0.3% to -0.5% per °C |
| Lifespan | 25 years or more |
When selecting solar modules, buyers should consider the efficiency ratings, wattage output, and the type of silicon used. It's important to specify the desired power output, installation type (roof-mounted or ground-mounted), and any specific certifications required for local regulations. Additionally, consider the warranty period offered by manufacturers as an indicator of product reliability.
