Solar modules, solar panels, and PV panels - are
all essentially the same thing. If you have more than one panel
or module, you have a solar array.
PV stands for photovoltaic (photo = light, voltaic
= electricity). A solar cell converts light into electricity.
There are different manufacturing processes for
making a solar module. In some scenarios, a certain kind of panel
might be better suited.
All of the panels listed with Prometheus Energy
are quality brands with a proven record of reliability.
All solar panels are remarkably durable. Most modules
have 20-25 year warranties on power output. Life expectancy of solar
modules is excellent.
The amount of electricity produced by a solar panel
depends on the size of the panel (measured in terms of watts), and
the number of hours of daily sunshine hours received.
Solar modules will still work in overcast days although
their output will be reduced.
