Introduction of Consumer Solar Panels
Introduction of Consumer Solar Panels
1. Industrial and commercial solar panels
Among the many solar panels, classified according to the category of use, it can be divided into industrial and commercial solar panels and consumer solar panels. The aluminum frame glass process basically used in the industrial and commercial solar panels. That is, the solar panels all have a metal frame, and the surface is covered by a layer of transparent tempered glass. This solar panel is characterized by low price, strong and durable, long life, waterproof, and can withstand 8-level winds, but they are all very bulky. Such panels are generally used in solar power stations, industrial plants or residential roofs. Typically, the use of industrial and commercial solar panel modules is very large. China's largest solar power station (Qinghai Talatan photovoltaic power station) covers an area of 609 square kilometers, with an installed capacity of 15,730GW and an annual power generation of 10 billion kilowatt-hours.
2. Consumer Solar Panel (Portable Solar Panel)
Let's talk about consumer solar panels, there are currently two kinds of solar panels in the consumer field, one is a solar cloth bag, which uses a sewing process to sew die-cast solar cells on a piece of cloth, but it cannot be waterproof and has become its disadvantage. There is also a kind of ETFE solar panel (integrated into a pressed solar panel), which is directly the solar cell, PV panel, and back plate through die-casting integrated molding. It is also foldable, but the size of these high-power solar panels will not be small when folded. Solar panels in the consumer sector are lightweight and can be used when hiking, camping, and self-driving trips. They can charge your phone, camera, or portable energy storage, and if combined with portable energy storage, they will perfectly meet your outdoor power needs.
3. Development of consumer solar panels
With the deepening of the global carbon peak and carbon neutrality strategy, and in order to cooperate with the development of the energy storage market, the demand for solar panels in the consumer field is also increasing. From the original solar cloth bag to more advantageous ETFE solar panels, from low-power solar panels to higher-power solar panels, now portable solar panels can also do up to 400W/each. At present, consumer solar panels are also expanding, and individual brands have developed special solar panels for a certain use scenario, which is most prominent in Anker's newly launched balcony solar panels in Europe. It combines the needs of European market users for solar panels installed on balconies, and develops solar panels that can be adjusted on the balcony, which solves the market pain point that traditional solar panels can only be installed vertically on the balcony, and maximizes the power generation of solar panels.
