A solar array's output is its rated power (area × efficiency at 1000 W/m²) multiplied by the peak sun hours your location receives — the equivalent full-intensity hours per day. Tilt matters too: aiming the panels near your latitude maximizes annual yield. Real systems lose a bit more to heat, wiring, and inverters.
