I will look out for some higher Efficiency panels when I get back to the UK. I am also considering bifacial panels to replace my guardrail mounted panels. We should see about 10% improvement in output for the same area of panels. Our current 720w of rail mounted panel should be closer to 900w. As the new panels are more efficient anyway.
Efficiency of the 200w panels is quoted as 16.7%. The 50w panels I have are only 14%. I chose the 50w panels for their convenience of being able to store them when not in use. They are mounted on a piece of canvas so when we fold them, 4 panels take up only the space of one when not in use.My 200W of Renogy flexible ETFE panels regularly go to 208W on a clear day so perhaps something wrong with yours given your better location.
