Technical FAQs 4

What is the wattage rating of a solar panel?

The Wattage rating of a solar panel is the most fundamental rating, representing the maximum power output of the solar panel under ideal conditions. You’ll often see it referred to as “Rated Power”, “Maximum Power”, or “Pmax”, and it’s measured in watts or kilowatts peak (kWp).

What does wattage mean on a solar panel?

You’ll often see it referred to as “Rated Power”, “Maximum Power”, or “Pmax”, and it’s measured in watts or kilowatts peak (kWp). For example, the nameplate from my solar panel specifies a Wattage output of 100W, meaning that the solar panel is capable of producing 100 Watts of power under ideal conditions.

How much power does a 100W solar panel generate?

In the example you see above, there’s an “Output Tolerance” rating of -3% to 3%. This means that, under ideal conditions, the 100W solar panel could generate between 97 and 103 Watts of power.

How many watts can a solar panel produce?

The 100 Watts that this solar panel is capable of producing under standard conditions is, in fact, a product of the solar panel producing its Maximum Power Voltage (Vmp) AND its Maximum Power Current (Imp): Pmax (Watts) = Vmp (Volts) x Imp (Amps)
