Technical FAQs 4

What are PERC solar panels?

One option that outstands from the rest is the Passivated Emitter and Rear Contact (PERC) solar technology which allows for the creation of PERC solar panels. The PERC solar panel is a highly efficient and improved type of PV technology that uses Crystalline Silicon (c-Si) and fixes some inconveniences of this traditional technology.

What is the difference between PERC and IBC solar cells?

Efficiency for IBC solar cells is higher in general, but the highest recorded efficiency for both technologies is similar. The highest efficiency for PERC solar cells was recorded at 25.0%, while IBC solar cells achieved a 25.4% conversion efficiency. The biggest downside for IBC technology is that it has a higher cost than PERC solar panels.

What is PERC technology?

PERC is only one of the available technologies to improve efficiency and applications for solar panels. There are other advanced technologies like Interdigitated Back Contact (IBC) and Bifacial Solar Cell (BSC) technology. Manufacturers can use either one or even combine PERC with IBC or BSC.

How are PERC solar cells made?

Poly PERC solar cells are manufactured by blending or melting different silicon fragments together, while mono PERC solar cells are manufactured using a single silicon crystal, free from grain limits (2D defects).
