The size of solar panels varies depending on the number of photovoltaic (PV) cells they include. Each cell adds to the panel’s total voltage and power output. The most commonly used cell layouts are 60-cell, 72-cell, and 96-cell panels. Let’s consider their main features and purpose:
The required surface area depends on the number of panels, their wattage, and physical dimensions. Roof orientation, shading, and available space also play significant roles. How do I assess my roof’s suitability for solar panels?
The average residential solar panel size is about 17.5 sq ft—though it’s good to overestimate the area required as some installation space is necessary between the panels and rows. When installing 22 panels like in our example, and each panel takes up about 18 sq ft, your system would require approximately 396 sq ft of roof space.
The solar panel size directly affects how much power your system can produce, how many panels you need, and whether your available roof space can support the installation. Choosing the proper system is not only about the solar panel dimensions. You should also consider wattage, number of cells, layout possibilities, and energy consumption.
