While both are reliable and have a mature market, they differ in shape and performance. Monocrystalline, also called single crystalline silicon solar panels, are easily recognizable due to their external dark black color.
In addition, shingled solar cells reflect less light, and thus generate more electricity. The adaptation of solar cell production from the conventional approach to shingled solar cells requires some dedicated optimizations, however.
With the shingled layout, there are fewer gaps between the individual solar cells so more of the sunlight that is incident on the module can be absorbed. Instead of using external connectors to transport the current from one cell to the next, the area of the cell overlap is used as an electrical connector.
The technique of laying out solar cells in a module so that their edges overlap like shingles on a house roof is called »shingling« With the shingled layout, there are fewer gaps between the individual solar cells so more of the sunlight that is incident on the module can be absorbed.
Our solar PV systems and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
