    I'm just wondering whether there's a formula that related the total area of the solar panel that's exposed to the light and the maximum output it can generate? Also, does one know what are the costs and how are they calculated if one wishes to buy solar panel for a DIY project? 😀

    average peak power output of PV cells is ~0.01-0.015 W/cm2:
