Panel
What you prefer
Start with the panel itself.
Panel type
Monocrystalline
Highest efficiency
The black, uniform-looking panels — cut from a single pure silicon crystal.
Benefits
Most power per square metre, so you need fewer panels.
Trade-offs
Costs the most per panel.
Polycrystalline
Best value
The speckled blue panels — many silicon fragments melted together.
Benefits
Noticeably cheaper for the same total power.
Trade-offs
Slightly less efficient — needs a little more space.
Thin-film
Light and flexible
A thin light-absorbing layer on a flexible backing, not rigid cells.
Benefits
Cheapest of all, lightweight, and handles heat and shade well.
Trade-offs
Least efficient — needs the most area for the same output.
