Inference-

From the graphs we can easily infer that the output varies according to the solar radiation falling on the
panel. If the radiation is more the current and voltage are high giving a high power output. Also the
efficiency varies according to the angle at which the panel is kept. We see that the efficiency is more for
20 degrees than 30 degrees. Thus smaller the angle more is efficiency . Also the reading needs to be
taken quickly as the radiation keeps on changing with time.
