Solar Panel Comparison Table

Last Updated: 25th Jan 2021

Find prices for solar panels and compare technical specifications of various brands and models of modules in our regularly updated solar panel comparison table. Compare panels to see which may be best suited to your home or business, or learn more about PV modules you’ve been quoted on by a solar power system installation company.

Note: A downward arrow next to a solar panel name indicates information on other models from that manufacturer is available – click/tap it to reveal those panels.

As you can imagine, creating a solar panel comparison table of this nature and extent was quite a daunting task given the number of brands and models now available, modules being discontinued, prices always changing and technical specification information sometimes difficult to track down.

We update this table frequently as more products and information become available, and specifications and prices of existing solar panels listed change.

Please note solar panel prices indicated are our best estimate of retail pricing including GST, based on available information, unless specifically noted otherwise.

Also note that warranty information was current at the time of adding the model – always check with the manufacturer for the latest warranty information.
