The panels initially sought by the team were those with the highest ratings in both efficiency and power. The constraints of the site dimensions as well as the desired output of seven twenty-five kilowatt arrays meant it was necessary to maximize the power per square footage. Given these factors, it became clear only panels with a power rating near two hundred kilowatts would be able to produce the desired electrical output within the allotted space. The following panels were given the most serious consideration for inclusion in the final design.
