A quick introduction to the terms commonly used in the Solar Efficiency discussions and a rule of thumb for quick efficiency calculations. Solar Cell, Panel and PV System? A solar cell, is a discrete unit, that produces electricity via the photovoltaic effect. As described in previous blog, there are many approaches to creating a solar […]

We will discuss Solar Panel Power Generation Efficiency and the role Solar Trackers can play in improving it. The trackers discussed here are purpose built for Portable Solar Panels. But the underlying science holds true for all Solar Panels. For purposes of this blog, Solar Panel are constructed from flexible Monocrystalline Solar Cells (e.g. Maxeon)
