Amorphous Solar Panels Vs Crystalline

In all our grid connect packages we only use good quality poly or monocrystalline panels except in very specific circumstances for the.

Amorphous solar panels vs crystalline.

Amorphous is lower cost than crystalline although it s less efficient in converting sunlight to energy and as a result requires a larger panel to deliver the same power as a smaller crystalline panel. Quite often we re asked about the advantages of monocrystalline panels and polycrystalline solar modules over their amorphous thin film counterparts. Amorphous offers the benefit of operating in lower light conditions and hence is suitable for many applications that are used in lighting since it will be able to put some charge into a battery at a lower light level than crystalline solar panels. Amorphous cells are constructed from a fine layer of silicon which enables solar panels to be more flexible and therefore lightweight.

Amorphous panels can be made for much less than crystalline panels and it seems the industry is set up for self sabotage because they seem to want to do whatever it takes to make sure these amorphous panels stay high at ridiculous prices and or are impossible to get. A special version of our amorphous material is available and optimized for indoor light sources. Amorphous panels are also lighter in weight and more portable than monocrystalline or polycrystalline panels producing the same amount of energy. Particularly in home solar power grid connect systems and how they affect the life of a solar panel.
