Solar panel and battery calculations : the complete guide

The efficiency of a solar panel is defined as the power that a solar panel will be able to generate from the light power supplied to it: Efficiency = electric power generated by the solar panel [W/m²] incident light power [W/m²] Since this is a ratio of power fluxes and we are dividing Watts/m² by Watts/m², the efficiency has no unit.
