Monocrystalline V/s Polycrystalline solar panels
Solar panels have advanced tremendously over the years, and a variety of novel solar panels are currently being presented to the marketplace. When it comes to installing a solar panel system, there are several factors to consider, one of which is the type of solar panels to choose from. Most solar panels on the market today for residential solar energy systems may be classified into three types: Monocrystalline solar panels, Polycrystalline solar panels, and thin-film solar panels.
A Monocrystalline solar panel comprises monocrystalline solar cells. Every solar cell consists of a silicon wafer made of silicon crystal. A single crystal is made with the process called the Czochralski method, where a seed crystal is placed over molten pure silicon at a high temperature. A monocrystal...
