Efficiency is all about maximizing the capabilities of functionality by improving every small area that affects it.
Over the years, solar panel technologies have drastically improved to new heights. From what started as a proof of concept with 1% efficiency, today's solar panels can attain 20% efficiency.
Solar efficiency matters because it gives you a higher and quicker return on your investment. New solar technologies continue to improve on the previous efficiency concepts as newer technologies and materials get discovered.
Nowadays, the average solar panel can achieve 20% efficiency flawlessly. New solar panel designs and material use have driven down costs, allowing homeowners to use the technologies and manufacturers to have enough material for advanced design and manufacturing.
If you're looking for high-quality solar panels, you can't go wrong with the LG NeON 2.
The LG NeON 2 are solar panels that are attached to an or exterior surface of a structure to generate electricity. The panels are lightweight and can be installed on any surface, including uneven surfaces. They are 60% lighter than conventional solar panels and have a lifespan of 25 years.
LG has engineered extremely strong double-wall aluminium frames on all modules which are rated well above average with an impressive 5,400 Pa rating on the front side and 4000 Pa on the rear side for wind loading, this is close to double the industry standard 2400 Pa wind rating.
The Neon 2 modules underwent static load testing by SECAust Engineering consultants in Darwin Australia and were able to withstand an incredible 10,000 Pa load without failure. The extremely high strength and stiffness of the Neon 2 would allow the LG modules to be mounted in any high wind load regions around the world.
The LG modules are rated to the highest level of corrosion resistance and can be installed in coastal locations with high levels of salt mist (maximum severity of 6), in addition to ammonia resistance.
Quality and Performance
To ensure no cells with defects or micro-cracks get through LG use two EL flash tests during production both before and after lamination. The high grade N-type cells used by LG have exceptional long term performance in regards to low light induced degradation (LID). LID is a common problem as all solar cells reduce output over time with the average power loss being 3% in the first year and approximately 0.8% per year after resulting in an average of 80-82% original rated capacity after 25 years. However LG cells warrants a much lower rate of degradation which improves overall performance and increased energy generation with a claimed 86-88% rated capacity remaining after 25 years.
To ensure reliability and long term performance LG perform strict quality control and testing throughout the manufacturing process with the LG test laboratory certified by the 4 major testing laboratories VDE, UL, TUV Rheinland and Intertek. The latest results from independent testing organisation DNV GL rated the LG panels as as a 'top performer' in the annual 'PV Module Reliability Scorecard Report'. (Continued)
