asked a question that prompted me to research and uncovered a minor error in my article. Thanks, Doug! I referred to panel efficiency somewhat opaquely and mentioned panel power density (the amount of power generated in a given panel area). Well, these are somewhat similar concepts. Panel efficiency is a measure of panel power generation density – a somewhat tortured one, in my view.
