How Hot Do Solar Panels Get? The Overlooked Thermal Challenge in Solar Energy

How Hot Do Solar Panels Get? The Overlooked Thermal Challenge in Solar Energy

When you picture solar panels, you probably imagine them basking in sunny glory. But here's the kicker: photovoltaic cells lose 0.5% efficiency for every 1°C temperature increase above 25°C (77°F). So how hot do solar panels actually get? Under peak conditions, rooftop installations can reach 65°C (149°F) - that's hot enough to fry an egg, though we don't recommend trying! [2021-01-02 11:41]
