Solar panel
What is a solar panel and which is the best choice? May 20,2021

Solar energy begins with the sun. Solar panels (also known as "PV panels") are used to convert light from the sun, which is composed of particles of energy called "photons", into electricity that can be used to power electrical loads.


Types of Solar Panels

Solar panels are broadly divided into the following three types.


Monocrystalline solar panels

They make the most suitable option for residential projects. The appearance of the solar panel makes it a popular choice among homeowners. The solar cells in this panel are single and have a flat-back kind of structure. Based on the size, the panel consists of 60-72 solar cells.

The panels have the highest power capacity among all the different types of solar panels. Since the panels are efficient, they require very little space to yield a certain power capacity. This implies that you will need less monocrystalline solar panels as compared to other types of panels to generate the same amount of energy. The superior performance of this type of panel makes it a popular choice. However, it is comparatively expensive and the most premium panels are of this type.


Polycrystalline Solar Panels

If you are planning to install a solar panel but are on a limited budget, this type of panel makes the ideal option. The panels are blue in color and are less efficient than monocrystalline solar panels. However, with new technologies being developed, the gap in efficiency has been reduced to a certain extent. Since the panels have a lower price, they are widely used in residential installations.


Thin Film Solar Panels

This form of a solar panel is completely different from the other two types of panel and is not considered suitable for homes. The lightweight and flexible nature of the panel makes the installation process easier. They are used in industrial solar installations and have a lower level of efficiency. The low performance makes it necessary to install more thin panels to generate the same amount of energy as compared to mono or polycrystalline solar panels. This means that the installation of such panels requires more space and makes them unsuitable for residential projects. The panels have a shorter lifespan and degrade much faster than the other two types of panels.
