Explanation of solar terminology & technology:
Monocrystalline:
Monocrystalline panels offer the highest efficiency. Mono-crystalline panels are manufactured from a single rod of silicon thus the crystal structure inside the silicon is uniform, with very few impurities. Polycrystalline panels on the other hand are made up of smaller crystal structures that introduce grain boundaries in each solar cell. This causes inefficiencies in the conduction of electrons due to defects associated with the crystal boundary.
PERC:
Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell (PERC) technology is a solar technology that improves light capture near the rear surface of solar panels and optimizes electron capture. Although it was first invented in the 1980s by the University of New South Wales, Australia, it has only recently been successfully commercialized at scale.
9BB (9 Busbar):
Busbars conduct the power generated by solar cells when they are hit by photons. 9BB means there are nine busbars in each solar cell. Early solar panels used to be only 2 busbars, but as technology evolves, the solar industry has been increasing the number of busbars in solar panels to reduce internal resistance losses and increase cell efficiency. In short, 9BB solar cells provide greater long-term reliability and performance compared to solar cells with a lower number of busbars.
