Quote from your first link:

"DBK's patent pending Alpha Solar PanelT line (3,000 watts) are large enough to 
supply power to the average home and are designed for residential and 
commercial applications. The size of one panel is approximately 62" x 32.5" x 
3.5" (L x W x D)."

As Horace pointed out this is complete nonsense: a panel of this size (1.3 m^2) 
only collects ~1.3 kW of solar power, so there is no way it can output 3kW.
