Arq.to Posted October 24, 2006 Report Posted October 24, 2006 SUNPOWER: New super-efficient solar panels! - Tue, 24 Oct 2006 06:35:20 +0000 Silicon Valley is hot again, and it’s a good thing for SunPower Corporation, a company which just released the most efficient solar panels to date. Based on the new Gen 2 Solar Cells, the SPR-315 solar panel will get a whopping 22% photovoltaic (PV) efficiency - over 10% more than the standard 7-12%. What does that extra 10% get you? Well according to SunPower, it means 50 percent more power per square foot of roof area. That means you can get just as much power using half as many panels or twice as much power with the same amount of panels. Unfortunately SunPower hasn’t released a price on the panels, but we’ll find out when they hit the market next spring. Ler artigo...
