How many kilowatts of electricity can a PV panel generate in a year?

Our country is vast and has abundant solar energy resources. In addition to the macro events of the PV industry, and then back to the micro PV panels. If someone suddenly asked you, a photovoltaic panel can generate how many degrees of electricity a year? Probably many people will be stunned, yes, how much in the end? This involves two determinants of photovoltaic power generation.


First, the power generated by the photovoltaic panels.


Second, the installation area of photovoltaic panels.


In the same area, the higher the power generation of photovoltaic panels, the shorter the time used to generate 1 degree of electricity, the higher the amount of electricity generated in a day.


Photovoltaic panels, there is sunlight to generate electricity. Therefore, the night can not generate electricity. Similarly, windy, hazy, rainy and snowy weather, also can hardly generate electricity. That is to say, photovoltaic power generation is closely related to the installation area. Different resource areas, the same type of photovoltaic panels, will also produce different power. Some places have an inherent advantage because they are well-lit.


Calculate an average, a photovoltaic panel can generate almost 400 degrees a year (theoretical value) electricity.


Why is it a theoretical value? This is because, in addition to the power generation of photovoltaic panels, installation area (annual equivalent utilization hours), photovoltaic power generation is also subject to external factors, such as installation angle and orientation, local climate, connection line material, surface shading, etc..


Installation of photovoltaic panels need to install the angle and orientation in order to make the photovoltaic panels to fully accept the light and play the maximum role. If installed haphazardly, people have an angle, you lie flat placed; people sit north facing south, you sit south facing north, and scientific deviation, not affect the power generation!


Days of rainfall, snowfall, a long time haze does not disperse, dust storms and so on, even the sun can not see, and then the good photovoltaic panels can not generate electricity.


If you use poor quality cables and other lines, the electricity sent are secretly leaked, sent more useless, but also prone to accidents. This shows the importance of the material.


Photovoltaic panels shade to clean up from time to time. For example, there are large trees near the photovoltaic panels, or tall houses, the total light is not yet a few hours, how to fully generate electricity ah. This is the problem of site selection. Or, the local sandy wind, only to install photovoltaic panels, but not carefully maintained, the panels are dust, but also can not fully generate electricity.


All of the above, are factors that affect the photovoltaic power generation, so to generate more power, but also need to be diligent maintenance and care
