# Irradiance Module

{% hint style="info" %}
We are currently creating documentation for our new range of devices. Please check back soon for guides and technical specifications to help you entirely use our latest technology.
{% endhint %}

The Irradiance Module is a precision tool designed to optimize solar panel performance through detailed efficiency analysis. This module reads the current generated by a small reference solar panel and calculates the efficiency of a larger panel by extrapolating the data. Additionally, it measures the temperature of the reference solar panel to accurately calculate the power output in watts and determine the solar radiance. Ideal for applications in solar energy research, photovoltaic system monitoring, and renewable energy optimization, the Irradiance Module empowers users to fine-tune their solar installations, ensuring maximum energy harvest and efficiency.
