Monocrystalline Solar Panel

Monocrystalline solar panels solar cells are made from a single crystal of silicon. Monocrystalline solar panels are generally thought as a premium solar product. The main advantages of monocrystalline solar panels are higher efficient. In these solar panels, silicon is formed into bars and cut into wafers, as we know the cell is composed of a single crystal, so electrons that generate a flow of electricity have more room to move.

Advantages of Monocrystalline solar panel

Highest efficiency as a comparison to other types of solar panels.
Monocrystalline solar panels convert more than 22% of sunlight into electricity.
Monocrystalline solar panels are space-efficient, they also occupy the less amount of space compared to any other types of solar panels.
Monocrystalline solar panels have a long lifespan of a 25-year warranty.
These solar panels are temperature co-efficient.

Disadvantages of Monocrystalline solar panel

Monocrystalline solar panels are the most expensive. But most of the manufacturers making monocrystalline solar panels targeting the premium brand in the market.

Polycrystalline Solar Panel

Polycrystalline solar panels have solar cells which made from many silicon fragments that are melted together in a mould before being cut into wafers. Polycrystalline solar panels were previously thought to be inferior as a comparison to monocrystalline solar panel because they are slightly less efficient, however, because of the cheaper method by which they are made of coupled with only slightly lower efficiencies they have become the dominant technology in solar panels market.

Advantages of Polycrystalline solar panel

The process used to make polycrystalline solar panel is simpler and less costly.
In polycrystalline solar panel, the amount of waste silicon is less compared to a monocrystalline solar panel.
Polycrystalline solar panels tend to have slightly lower heat tolerance as other types of solar panels.
Polycrystalline solar panels will tend to have a higher temperature coefficient as a comparison to other than solar modules made with mono cells. This means that as heat increased output of polycrystalline solar panels cell will fall less. However, in practice, these differences are very minor.

Disadvantages of Polycrystalline solar panel

Polycrystalline solar panels cover a larger surface to output the same electrical power as monocrystalline solar panel produces.
The efficiency of polycrystalline solar panels is typically 15-18%. Because of lower silicon purity, polycrystalline solar panels are not as efficient as a comparison to monocrystalline solar panels.
Polycrystalline solar panels have Lower space-efficiency.

Thin Film Solar Panel

Thin-film solar panels are a totally different technology as a comparison to Monocrystalline solar panels and Polycrystalline solar panels. A thin-film solar panel can be identified as a solid black appearance, if the solar panels have no frame it is a thin-film solar panel.

Advantages of Thin Film solar panel

Thin Film solar panels are cheaper to manufacture as a comparison to crystalline-based solar panels.
Thin Film solar panels can be made flexible, which opens for many new potential applications.
In Thin Film, solar panel high temperatures and shading have less impact on solar panel performance.

Disadvantages of Thin Film solar panel

The efficiency of polycrystalline solar panels is typically 08-14%.
Thin-film solar panels are in general not very useful for in most residential situations because they require a lot of space.
Crystalline solar panels produce up to four times more output as thin-film solar panels for the same amount of space.
Thin-film solar panels tend to degrade faster than the crystalline solar panel that is why they typically come with a shorter warranty.

Question and Answer On Solar Panel?

Question:- What is Solar Panel?

Answer: - Solar panels are devices that convert sunlight into electricity. They are made up of crystalline silicon cell which tends to generate electricity in the presence of sunlight.

Question:- How solar panels work?

Answer: - Solar cell composed of two layers of semiconductor material which opposite charge when sunlight falls on the surface of the cell then electron starts travelling from one layer to another providing a flow of electricity.

Question: - How many solar panels are needed to run a house?

Answer: - Generally need 15 solar panels to completely cover electrical power needs. 5 KWp solar panels generate appx 600 Units monthly, which is an average consumption of a family.

Question: - How long do solar panels last?

Answer: - Solar panels are usually having a warranty for 25 years. Solar panel with a degradation rate of 1% per year will be 10% less efficient after 10 years and its means that after 25 years solar panels still operate at 75% efficiency or better.

Question: - How much will I really save on my electricity bills with solar panels?

Answer: - Yes you can save 70–90% of your monthly electricity bill that depends on how much electricity your home or business uses, the rate your electricity company charges, and several other factors. Solar Panels give you the ability to save money by creating a natural source of energy that has the ability to power your home or office.

Question: - What is the cost of a solar panel?

Answer: - The price or cost of the solar panel depending on the wattage and types of solar panel, generally solar panel price in India is 22 to 26 rupees per watt.

Question: - What are the types of solar panels?

Answer: - There are three types of Solar panels. Monocrystalline solar panels, Polycrystalline solar panels,s and Thin-film solar panels or bi-facial solar panels.

Question: - What is a Monocrystalline solar panel?

Answer: - Monocrystalline solar panels solar cells are made from a single crystal of silicon formed into bars and cut into wafers, as we know the cell is composed of a single crystal, so electrons that generate a flow of electricity have more room to move.
