What are the types of solar panels?

Solar panels are very important to our production and life, especially in the field of solar energy. What are the types of solar panels? How many types of solar panels are divided into? Let's go take a look next.

Here is the content list:

• Monocrystalline solar panels

• Polycrystalline solar panels

• Amorphous silicon solar panel

Monocrystalline solar panels

The photoelectric conversion efficiency of monocrystalline silicon solar panels is about 15%, and the highest is 24%. This is the highest photoelectric conversion efficiency of all types of solar panels. However, the production cost of solar panels is so large that solar panels cannot be used in large quantities. Widely and universally used. Since monocrystalline silicon solar panels are generally encapsulated with toughened glass and waterproof resin, they are sturdy and durable, with a service life of up to 15 years, and up to 25 years.

Polycrystalline solar panels

The production process of polycrystalline silicon solar panels is similar to that of monocrystalline silicon solar panels, but the photoelectric conversion efficiency of polycrystalline silicon solar panels is much lower. The photoelectric conversion efficiency of polycrystalline silicon solar panels is about 12% (on July 1, 2004, the efficiency of Sharp's listing in Japan is 14.8%). The world's highest efficiency polycrystalline silicon solar panel). In terms of the production cost of solar panels, it is cheaper than monocrystalline silicon solar panels. The materials are easy to manufacture, save electricity consumption, and the total production cost is lower. Therefore, it has been developed in a large amount. In addition, the service life of polycrystalline silicon solar panels is shorter than that of monocrystalline silicon solar panels. In terms of cost performance, monocrystalline silicon solar panels are slightly better.

Amorphous silicon solar panel

Amorphous silicon solar panel is a new type of thin-film solar panel that appeared in 1976. It is completely different from monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon solar panels. The process is greatly simplified, the silicon material consumption is low, and the power consumption is lower. The main advantage is that it can generate electricity in low light conditions. However, the main problem of amorphous silicon solar panels is that the photoelectric conversion efficiency is low. The international advanced level is about 10%, and it is not stable enough. As time goes by, its conversion efficiency decays.

Multi-compound solar panels

Multi-compound solar panels refer to solar panels that are not made of a single element semiconductor material. There are many kinds of researches in various countries, most of which have not been industrialized, mainly as follows: Cadmium sulfide solar panels, gallium arsenide solar panels, copper indium selenium solar panels.

To better develop solar panels, the manufacturer of Anhui JF Solar Technology Co., Ltd. (JF Solar) is committed to developing more products according to different types of solar panels, and strictly controls the quality of the solar panels produced.
