360 Watt Solar Panels

360W solar panels

Compared to the first panels ever produced, solar energy has become a hundred times more accessible. In the middle of the 20th century solar panels were much less efficient but cost a fortune – about 100$ per watt vs. $0.3-0.5 they cost now. A 360 watt solar panel became possible thanks to these advances.

PV modules with this wattage attract homeowners, and there are good reasons for their popularity. They are quite powerful for residential use, but at the same time easy to handle, at least in comparison with higher wattage models. Their size gives you enough freedom to position the panels the way you like and maximize your available space. The modules’ dimensions also allow them to be used on top of almost any vehicle, so a 360 watt solar panel for RV is also a great idea.

Specifications of 360 Watt Solar Panels

360W solar panels tend to weigh about 40 lbs, being approximately 67 inches long and 40 inches wide. Monocrystalline modules with this wattage have 60 or 72 cells, but polycrystalline panels have at least 72 due to lower efficiency.

The efficiency range of 360W solar panels lies between 15 and 22% and varies among different manufacturers. The modules also differ in backsheet and frame colors, as well as overall aesthetics. Depending on your situation, you might also want to consider such points as weather resistance, degradation rate and temperature coefficient. Our store offers many options for every possible set of circumstances.

Features of 360 Watt Solar Panels

• A 25 year warranty is what you will get in most cases. However, some manufacturers like Silfab offer 30 years
• Lightweight, strong and corrosion-resistant anodized aluminum is the metal of choice for modules’ frames
• PID resistant: potential induced degradation has little to no power over most modern modules
• Outstanding efficiency that reaches 22.8% in some cases
• More flexibility with optimal size and weight 

It’s not only efficiency and price that have changed over the recent years. Many technologies have been developed to fight issues like shading, poor performance on cloudy days and temperature-driven efficiency decrease. As a result, you can now pick a module with the right set of features for the conditions in your area.

Average Price of 360 Watt Solar Panels

360 watt solar panel price is decided by the manufacturer. If you are looking for the most efficient modules and don’t want to pay too much, many Chinese manufacturers can offer you excellent price to efficiency ratios. If quality goes before everything else, there are many European, Japanese and Korean brands that prioritize quality. Generally, their modules are on the expensive side. There is also a third option – the panels made in North America. They may be a tad less expensive, but their quality standards are equally rigorous. These are not rules, just some very general outlines. You can browse 360 watt solar panels for sale in our store.
