It is 12V or 24V. The voltage of a solar panel mainly depends on the solar panel type, size, cells, etc. Whether it be open circuit voltage, maximum power voltage, or nominal voltage, you will find it all in the datasheet of the manufacturer. Generally, the nominal voltage of any solar panel is 12V or 24V.
36-Cell Solar Panel Output Voltage = 36 × 0.58V = 20.88V What is especially confusing, however, is that this 36-cell solar panel will usually have a nominal voltage rating of 12V. Despite the output voltage being 18.56 volts, we still consider this a 12-volt solar panel.
Most common solar panels include 32 cells, 36 cells, 48 cells, 60 cells, 72 cells, or 96 cells. Each PV cell produces anywhere between 0.5V and 0.6V, according to Wikipedia; this is known as Open-Circuit Voltage or V OC for short. To be more accurate, a typical open circuit voltage of a solar cell is 0.58 volts (at 77°F or 25°C).
If you know the number of PV cells in a solar panel, you can, by using 0.58V per PV cell voltage, calculate the total solar panel output voltage for a 36-cell panel, for example. You only need to sum up all the voltages of the individual photovoltaic cells (since they are wired in series, instead of wires in parallel).
