SunPower Corp Now Offers PV Panels with 19.5% Efficiency

SunPower Corp. has unveiled its new SunPower E19 Series solar panels, a product line that offers modules in a 96-cell or 72-cell configuration, with efficiencies of 19 percent or greater.


The SunPower E19 Series includes the E19 318-watt, 96-cell solar panel with an efficiency rating of 19.5 percent and the E19 238-watt, 72-cell solar panel with an efficiency of 19.1 percent.


The company said the modules feature larger, more powerful all-back contact solar cells that deliver three percent more surface area per cell, boosting panel efficiency by reducing unutilized space. The panels also have an anti-reflective coating that allow for more diffuse off-angle light to be captured, generating more energy per rated watt than a conventional solar panel.
