Monocrystalline silicon solar cell
Performance characteristics:
High photoelectric conversion efficiency, generally between 15%-24%, is the most efficient type of solar cell on the market.
Good stability, long service life, usually up to 25 years or more.
Good weak light performance, can also have a certain power generation capacity under weak light conditions such as cloudy days.
Applicable scenarios:
Large-scale ground photovoltaic power station: Due to its high efficiency, it can generate more electricity on a limited land area, suitable for large-scale photovoltaic power station construction.
Distributed photovoltaic power generation system: It is also very suitable for distributed power generation scenarios such as homes and enterprises that pursue high power generation and long-term stable operation.
2. Polycrystalline silicon solar cell
Performance characteristics:
The manufacturing cost is relatively low. Compared with monocrystalline silicon, the production process of polycrystalline silicon is relatively simple and the price is more advantageous.
The conversion efficiency is moderate, generally around 12%-18%.
It has a good cost-effectiveness and is competitive in projects that are more sensitive to cost.
Applicable scenarios:
Large-scale photovoltaic power station: widely used in large-scale photovoltaic projects where cost control is more important.
Commercial and industrial distributed photovoltaic systems: For some commercial and industrial sites that have certain requirements on cost but need a certain amount of power generation, polycrystalline silicon solar cells are a good choice.
3. Amorphous silicon solar cells
Performance characteristics:
It has a good response to weak light and can generate electricity in the early morning, evening or in an environment with weak indoor light.
The manufacturing process is simple and the cost is low. It can be made on a flexible substrate and has the characteristics of bendability and light weight.
The photoelectric conversion efficiency is relatively low, generally between 5%-10%.
Applicable scenarios:
Consumer electronic products: such as small electronic devices such as solar chargers and solar watches, taking advantage of their bendability and lightness.
Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV): It can be made into components of different shapes and colors, combined with the appearance of the building, which is both beautiful and can generate electricity.
Special application scenarios: such as outdoor products such as solar tents and solar backpacks, as well as some occasions with special requirements for weight and shape.
