Technical FAQs 4

Why are BC solar panels better than regular solar panels?

Without metal lines on the front, more sunlight hits the solar cells. This makes BC panels about 0.6-0.7% more efficient than regular ones. BC panels could someday reach 29.1% efficiency, which is really high for silicon solar panels. 2. They Look Better BC panels have a clean, all-black look with no visible lines.

What is a BC solar panel?

BC stands for “Back Contact.” These solar cells are different from regular ones. In normal solar panels, you can see thin metal lines on the front that collect electricity. But these lines block some sunlight. BC panels move all these lines to the back of the panel.

How do BC solar panels work?

In normal solar panels, you can see thin metal lines on the front that collect electricity. But these lines block some sunlight. BC panels move all these lines to the back of the panel. Think of it like hiding all the wires behind your TV instead of having them hang down the front.

Are BC solar cells a viable alternative to traditional solar cells?

Consequently, there has been a growing interest in exploring alternative technologies such as BC solar cells, which relocate the electrodes and CTLs to the rear side of the cell, thereby addressing the limitations associated with traditional solar cell structures.
