The best photovoltaic solar panels
Thought I would share some information on what are rated as the best/most efficient panels available. Sanyo HIT Power N Series. The cells are hybrids of monocrystalline silicone, surrounded by ultr...

OK, I forgive you. Did you look who wrote the article? It's a lady who writes about organic gardening and wild foods. The 1.1% may have come from a high school science project. Just goes to show you can't believe everything you read. Their science project has a fatal error. They applied a constant resistive load (55.8 ohm) to the panel under test. They though that's the correct load to get the maximum power point. Well, it may get MPP at 25C, but MPP changes with temperature. They introduced a huge measurement error.
Here's a credible analysis for the power temperature coefficient. His range is -0.4 to -0.5%/C.

Cindy Hill authored the article, she did not conduct the study. Oh how qiuck we are to dismiss what we care not to believe.
I guess you would also dismiss the study conducted by the Rivers State University of science and technology, which found very similar results.
