BATTLE OF THE SOLAR BRANDS

With so many different solar companies out there how are we suppose to know what the best choice is for our home. Well my friend Deep Patel owner of Go Green Solar is trying something new and revolutionary in order to find an answer to that question. Simply put he is creating a testing facility in his own back yard. The battle of the solar panels as he calls it. Below is some info from his blog...

"Even though solar panels look very similar to each other, not all are created equal. Each make/model of solar panels have their unique characteristics which allow them to produce more or less power in different environments. By adding Enphase Micro Inverters to each solar panel and connecting the system to the internet, we will be able to share live production data with you through our website 365 days a year."



He will be installing the following six solar panels to kick off the competition off:

#1 - Sanyo HIP-215NKHA5
#2 - REC REC215AE-US
#3 - Sharp ND-U230C1
#4 - Canadian Solar CS6P-230
#5 - SolarWorld SW 230
#6 - Solon P220/6+/01 230Wp
