Today my 1000 watts of panel maxed out at 1290 watts , with all the white snow , cool temperature, and good sunlight I guess if we could cool off our panels without using any energy we would have a hit.

I remember reading something about max efficiency of panels and they were taking readings and the highest reading was during a hazy day and not full sunlight, surprised me, but I really know very little about this subject.

My understanding is when it really hot outside you lose min 10 per cent.

Cold is your friend when making PV power and your enemy when storing it in a lead acid battery
