The Next Generation of the World's Highest Efficiency Solar Panels

We currently have 2x 90 watt SunPower SPR-90 panels installed on our sail boat

Details on these solar panels:

SPR-90 High Efficiency PV module - Solar Panel

The SunPower SPR-90 is a 90-watt-rated solar panel very suitable to charge 12-volt batteries in marine power applications, where high battery-charging current over a wide range of weather conditions is likely. The high power density of SPR-90 can reduce the costs typically associated with Marine power systems.

SunPower's solar panels use our breakthrough all black contact solar cells which generate up to 50% more power than conventional solar cells. Our monocrystalline silicon solar cells combine higher voltage per cell with an extremely low voltage-temperature coefficient to enable superior battery charging performance at high operating temperature. Exceptional low-light performance and broad spectral response further enhance energy delivery in all weather conditions, year round. SunPower modules—innovative design, proven materials, outstanding performance.

Features & Benefits

• Sturdy, black anodized aluminum frame with mounting holes enables easy installation
• Over 5.1 amps of peak battery charging current
• Unique back-contact solar cells with conversion efficiency up to 21.5%
• Low voltage-temperature coefficient ensures maximum battery charging current is available
