The photovoltaic (PV) technology have become more popular and more affordable in view of decreased energy expenses. This technology is one of the eco-friendliest ways to produce energy at the present time because they quiet, generate no greenhouse gases while in usage and need no fuel to operate them. However, generating electricity using photovoltaic technology is nowadays costlier when compared to the more conventional techniques. The most important reason for this is solar panel prices. In the worldwide, there are numerous of solar panel brands. Each of the solar panel brands has list of performance, durability, quality, warranty, support agreement, physical size, quality of materials and other specifications. These panels are marketable from a hundred dollars to six hundred dollars; due to the different properties. In this study, the Analytical Hierarchical Process (AHP) method applied to compare 230W solar panel brands in PV system. The five different criteria (mechanical, customer, electrical, environmental and financial) are used to assessment the solar panels performance. To select the best solar panel, this multi-criteria decision making method is performed depend on user-defined weighted factors.
