What is a photovoltaic module?

A photovoltaic (PV) module is a packaged, and connected photovoltaic solar cells assembled in an array of various sizes. Photovoltaic modules constitute the photovoltaic array of a photovoltaic system that generates and supplies solar electricity in commercial and residential applications.

What are photovoltaic panels & how do they work?

They are designed for builders constructing single family homes with pitched roofs, which offer adequate access to the attic after construction. It is assumed that aluminum framed photovoltaic (PV) panels mounted on a “post” and rail mounting system, the most common in the industry today, will be installed by the homeowner.

How much space does a photovoltaic module occupy?

Photovoltaic modules installed on a sloping roof or facade occupy an area of approximately 8 m2/kWp. Photovoltaic modules installed on the ground or on a flat surface occupy an area of approximately 20 m2/kWp, avoiding shading between the rows of modules.
