Can doubling the size of a solar cell double the output?
I am going to buy 3×6 solar cells with a 2 watt output, but the seller doubled the size and i need to know if it increases the output. (If you need to know why, I want to know how big my solar panel is going to be)
For roof size check out the David Darling referenced link below. It provides a square foot of roof space required for the amount of watts you are needing. It also contains some very good pointers about what to take into consideration for the sizing of your system.
According to the chart doubling the square feet corresponded to double the watts.
The second link also gets you to a calculator for system cost expectations.
