Are we in the USA or in Putin’s Russia?

The specifications on these series 7 panels are better for snow load, hail resistance and temperature coefficient as one of the best panels available today. The degradation of 2% the first year of use and something like 0.25% every year after to, (30) years is one of the best performance warranties one can find. This calculates out to a 440 watt panel still having 399 watts peak output after 30 years of service. Now all one needs is price and availability to craft a superior long lasting solar PV system, using smart BESS can have a long lasting, robust micro-grid for one’s home. These types of specifications have a real possibility of adding 4-6 (more) panels to an array and offset degradation and dusting of panel losses during use over a 30 (+) year period.
