I am doing a project on solar panels.
All information given has to be accurate.
May I know how much energy can monocrystalline, polycrystalline, amorphous, vaporware solar panel produce? I also want to know more about solar panels. For example, how did Americans use solar panels during autumn and winter? Is the solar panel used in their everyday life?
Why can't S'pore use solar panel even though we experience hot weather all year round?
The link below is a very good place to start. It has a lot of information and there are many good links as well.
Monocrystalline cells typically convert about 15% - 22% of the light that hits them to electricity. The variations depend upon details of the construction of the cell.
Polycrystalline cells typically convert between about 10% - about 15% of the light to electricity, again cell design and also silicon quality affect the energy output.
Amorphous silicon cells have production values near that of polycrystalline silicon.
Vaporware is a sarcastic name for PV technologies that are under development but not yet shipping.
Solar panels are used all year around. They are only efficient if they receive direct sunshine and therefore produce very little power under cloudy conditions or if shaded.
Interestingly it is the light that produces electricity and heat actually will interfere with electricity production so solar panels used in very hot climates are less efficient than sunny but cold climates.
Singapore is very hot all year around because it is locate on the equator. I have never been there but I have been told that it is also very cloudy in Singapore. It that is true then Singapore will not be a very good place for solar panels.
