Performance ratio 1.
Photon laboratory is focused primarily on performing yield measurements under standard test conditions stc evaluating weak light behavior and determining temperature coefficients.
We ve had a fairly hot january and february in 2016 so the panels temperature co efficient is put under pressure.
The test series quickly became the world s largest of its kind.
Since we are about to add a new line up of solar panels it thought it was time to update the test results.
The measurements have been paused in 2016 and 2017 but are to be resumed in 2018.
It has been almost seven months since i updated the data of my solar panel test results.
In 2015 a total of 173 different solar panels from vendors of international repute with large enough facilities were tested.
The test measures the electricity output of a solar panel exposed to real world conditions within a 12 month period.
In the meantime results are available for around 200 different module types for the period up to june 2015.
