Mono panels can convert more than 22 of sunlight into electricity.
Black crystal solar panels.
The primary advantage of mono panels is their higher efficiency over polycrystalline panels.
The bright world of photovoltaics.
In addition polycrystalline solar panels tend to have a blue hue instead of the black hue of monocrystalline panels.
Monocrystalline black solar panels.
However instead of using a single crystal of silicon manufacturers melt many fragments of silicon together to form the wafers for the panel.
Polycrystalline solar panels are also made from silicon.
But when dark monocrystalline cells are placed on a black backsheet it is difficult to distinguish the grid from the cells and so it creates a black solar panel.
Monocrystalline solar panels are a premium solar product.
The main advantages of moncrystalline panels are higher efficiencies and sleeker aesthetics.
This silicon has a higher level of purity as compared to the silicon crystals used in blue polycrystalline solar panels.
Black solar cells reach incredible new efficiency record.
Solar cells are normally placed on a white backsheet which creates a grid of white lines around them.

Because of the way light interacts with a monocrystalline silicon layer monocrystalline solar panels appear black in color.
The silicon is all oriented the same way in a monocrystalline solar cell creating one large silicon crystal.
They are made from a single high quality silicon crystal.
