Types of Solar Panels

Monocrystalline solar cells This type of solar cell is made from thin wafers of silicone cut from artificially grown crystals. These cells are created from single crystals grown in isolation, making them the most expensive type of cell (they cost around 35% more than poly crystalline cells). However, they are the most efficient, with ratings […]

How do solar panel work?

What are solar panels? Typically, they are rectangular or square, plate-like structures made up of silicon cells. These cells are a form of semiconductor and contain electrons. Chemical substances are applied to the cells (such as phosphorous and boron) to create a magnetic field. Some of the cells have a positive charge and some have […]
