What is the difference between single crystal

In the solar market we can see single crystal solar panels, polycrystalline solar panel components and many other solar products, so in the selection process should pay attention to, then some consumers will ask what is the difference between single crystal and polycrystalline, the following analysis:

There is no difference between polycrystalline silicon solar cells and monocrystalline silicon solar cells. Both polycrystalline silicon solar cells and monocrystalline silicon solar cells have good life and stability. Although the average conversion efficiency of monocrystalline silicon solar cells is higher than the average polysilicon solar cell conversion efficiency is about 1%, but because of monocrystalline silicon solar cell can only be made quasi square (the top four is arc), when the composition of solar battery components are part of the area to fill, and polycrystalline silicon solar cell is a square, there is no this problem, So the efficiency is the same for a solar cell module. In addition, because the two solar cell materials are made differently, polycrystalline solar cells use about 30 percent less energy than monocrystalline solar cells.

Through the introduction of this article can be very good to know what kind of difference the two have, and what kind of effect in the process of use, so pay attention to the time of purchase.
