If the sun shines on a solar panel with a 20% efficiency rating, 20% of the sun''s energy will convert to solar energy in ideal conditions. Given the same amount of sunlight shining simultaneously on two equal-sized solar panels with different efficiency ratings, the more efficient panel will produce more power than the less efficient panel.
