Solar PV panel peak power

Nominal power (or peak power) is the of (PV) devices, such as , and . It is determined by measuring the and in a , while varying the under precisely defined conditions. The nominal power is important for designing an installation in order to correctly dimension its and . Nominal power is also called peak power because the test conditions at which it is determined a. Peak power for solar panels, rated in kilowatts per hour (kWp), is the maximum energy output that a panel can produce. The datasheet contains this information for each solar panel. Power output is never a constant.
