Questions & answers

How efficient is the LIGHT ENGINE ILUMINACAO HS60-450-BOB?

Calculated from the panel area (2.16 m²): about 20.8% for the 450 W class. 450 W over 2.16 m² equals about 208 W per square meter.

How much energy does one panel produce in Los Angeles or Palmdale?

PVWatts v8 with typical-year weather gives about 754 kWh per year per 450 W panel in Los Angeles and about 826 kWh in Palmdale (20° roof, facing south, 14% system losses).

How much power does it lose on a hot roof?

With γ = −0.373 %/°C, at a 77 °C cell temperature (hottest modeled hour in Palmdale) output is about 19.3% below the STC rating.
