Before getting into the different types of panels, it's useful to recap exactly how solar photovoltaic systems work. Each panel is, in essence, a way to capture the sun's radiation and convert it ...

There are three types of solar panels: monocrystalline, polycrystalline and thin-film. Each has its own benefits. Read about which might work for you.

While saying that solar panel connectors are universal would be a bit of a stretch, the widespread use of the MC4 has created a de facto universal industry standard. Before MC4 connectors became ...

Since solar panel connectors are exposed to a range of harsh conditions, including extreme weather, they're designed to be waterproof and UV-resistant. High-quality connectors should hold up for ...

Nextracker, a US-based provider of ground mount solar tracker technologies, announced NX Foundation Solutions, a suite of products and services that expand the range of soil conditions that ...

One way to make solar panels more efficient is by mounting them onto solar tracker panels. Using a tracker instead of a flat mounting system can increase a solar panel’s output by 30% to 50%.
