Technologies that increase the efficiency of photovoltaic panels

In our previous articles it is possible to discover efficient solutions to obtain cheaper electricity and with a low carbon imprint. You have chosen to buy a Photovoltaic kit and become a prosumor. What should you know? Would certainly help you discover the details on efficiency photovoltaic panels And choose the system that best corresponds to the consumption needs.

The efficiency of a photovoltaic panel represents the percentage of the amount of solar radiation received from the panel that is converted into electricity. A photovoltaic panel is even more efficient, more electricity produces on the same surface. Currently, the most performing photovoltaic panels on the market have an efficiency of over 21%.

Types of photovoltaic panels

Depending on the needs, on the profile market you can find different types of photovoltaic panels:

• Monochristalline photovoltaic panels – offers the highest production of electricity and the best surrender;
• Polypholtaic Polycycrystalline Panels – They are less efficient, but have a lower purchase price;
• Photovoltaic panels Amorfe thin film – They are flexible, they can be used on curved surfaces, they are cheaper, but they have low efficiency.

Technologies you want to have your photovoltaic panels

When using a system of photovoltaic panels as a source of practicable energy, the efficiency of the solar panels directly affects the efficiency of the entire system. To maximize the efficiency of the solar panels, you can opt for:

• Solar concentrated – rather expensive technology, but which increases the efficiency by 40%. Careful! A concentrator cannot be mounted on a classic solar panel: there are solar panels with concentration, specially designed for sunlight to be focused on a very small surface, directly in the solar cell;
• Solar mirrors – which reflect more light in the area of ​​the solar panel and can increase their efficiency of up to 30%;
• Automated energy monitoring systems – which modify the inclination of the panel according to the movement of the sun and place perpendicular to the sun. A traker can be provided with a single axis (increases by 20%) or two axes (increases by 30%).

In addition, on the profile market you can find specific equipment and technologies, which increase the efficiency of your medium and long -term photovoltaic panels.

Technologies that increase the yield of photovoltaic panels

You can increase the efficiency of photovoltaic panels with help:

• Per (passed emitter and rear cell) – The technology of CELLE PERF defines an architecture of photovoltaic cells that differ from standard cell architecture. The photovoltaic cells perc have an additional layer on the back of traditional solar cells. This further layer allows the capture of a greater quantity of sunlight and transforming it into electricity, making the cells per more efficient of traditional cells;
• Half -cell – allows the photovoltaic panel to produce electricity even when half the panel is shaded;
• Multi Busbar – for a better capture of light, a higher power supplied and with better reliability;

• Antiid (degradation induced by light and high temperature) – the high light and temperatures determine the degradation of photovoltaic cells over time; This is the reason why it is very important that the photovoltaic panels that must be chosen to be supplied with tested technologies that limit the degradation of the cells caused by light and high temperatures;
• Anti -crapo (degradation induced by light) – The lid represents the degradation of the photovoltaic panels that take place immediately after the panel has been exposed to the sun and ceases in a few days or weeks. To avoid rapid degradation in the first period after installation we recommend that you choose photovoltaic panels that incorporate the best anti -lid technologies;
• Anti pid (potential induced degradation) – The PID represents the degradation of the performance of the photovoltaic panels induced by the potential difference between the crystalline photovoltaic cells. This effect can cause power leaks up to 30%. The PID phenomenon is significantly reduced to photovoltaic cells that use high quality quartz, it is therefore important to use quality photovoltaic panels from consecrated producers;
• Hot point protection – guarantees the operation of cells and photovoltaic panels without the appearance of local overheating points that reduce the productivity of the panel or could cause fires.

Do you want to increase the efficiency of your photovoltaic panel system? Now you have technologies that increase the efficiency of photovoltaic panels up to 40%.
