Sandia National Labs announced that SunPower Corporation’s (Nasdaq: SPWR)new SPR-315 96-cell solar panel is the most efficient commercially available, mass-produced panel ever tested at the lab.
Sandia measured the actual power output of the SunPower 315 watt nameplate-rated solar panel at 321.65 watts, giving the panel an unprecedented module efficiency of 19.7%.
SunPower’s technology is up to 50% greater than conventional solar technology and up to 100%higher than commercial thin film panels. Higher efficiency also reduces system installation and sales costs, as more power can be generated with fewer panels compared to conventional or thin film technology.
