Panel ventilation

<< < (5/5)

This guy sprayed a mist on his panels, but the improvement wasn't much more than the energy cost to raise the water.
He got about 10% better output while misting.

Yes, good ventilation can help to lower the temperature of a solar panel. This is especially important in warm climates as it helps to keep the panel at optimal working temperatures and ensure it runs efficiently. Additionally, proper ventilation will also protect your panel from overheating which could damage its components and reduce its effectiveness over time. Finally, good airflow can also reduce the amount of dust and debris buildup on your panels, which could reduce their efficiency. All in all, good ventilation is an important part of keeping your solar panel running at its best.

If you do decide to ventilate your panel make sure that it is done correctly. Improperly installed vents can lead to inefficient airflow
