2. Nominal power (photovoltaic) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_power_(photovoltaic)

   The nominal power of PV devices is measured under standard test conditions (STC), specified in standards such as IEC 61215, IEC 61646 and UL 1703. Specifically, the light intensity is 1000 W/m 2, with a spectrum similar to sunlight hitting the Earth's surface at latitude 35°N in the summer (airmass 1.5), the temperature of the cells being 25 °C.

3. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   Solar panels are also known as solar cell panels, solar electric panels, or PV modules. Solar panels are usually arranged in groups called arrays or systems . A photovoltaic system consists of one or more solar panels, an inverter that converts DC electricity to alternating current (AC) electricity, and sometimes other components such as ...

4. Photovoltaic system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system

   A photovoltaic system, also called a PV system or solar power system, is an electric power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and ...

5. Solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_power

   Solar power, also known as solar electricity, is the conversion of energy from sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaics (PV) or indirectly using concentrated solar power. Solar panels use the photovoltaic effect to convert light into an electric current. [2] Concentrated solar power systems use lenses or mirrors and solar ...

6. Panel generation factor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panel_generation_factor

   Panel generation factor (PGF) [1] is used while calculating the size of solar photovoltaic cells. It is a varying factor depending upon the climate of the site location (depending upon global geographic location). For example, in Thailand it is 3.43, in EU countries it is 2.93, etc. This factor is used in calculation of "Total Watt-Peak Rating ...

7. Rooftop solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooftop_solar_power

   Solar panels produce carbon free electricity when irradiated with sunlight. Often made of silicon, solar panels are made of smaller solar cells which typically have six cells per panel. Multiple solar panels strung together make up a solar array. Solar panels are generally protected by tempered glass and secured with an aluminum frame. [11] The ...
