So what and who cares.
Mono perc vs poly solar panels.
Update 16th april 2019.
I m not talking about the labour efficiencies they receive.
It creates more pathways for power to get to the inverter.
On the other hand passivated emitter and rear cell perc uses dielectric passivation film on the rear surface of the cells.
A half cut cell doubles this amount to 120 in the same size solar panel.
Conventionally solar cells have an emitter layer on the front surface and a black coating on the rear side.
Monocrystalline solar panels have solar cells made from a single crystal of silicon while polycrystalline solar panels have solar cells made from many silicon fragments melted together.
Polycrystalline solar panels are cheaper than monocrystalline panels however they are less efficient and aren t as aesthetically pleasing.

Many perc panels have suffered from letid deterioration problems since this article was written.
This article here goes into the problem and this article on the mc electrical blog covers it in detail and gives information on which perc panels are resistant to letid.

Monocrystalline solar cells are more efficient because they are cut from a single source of silicon.
It is mainly used in large scale commercial applications.
Advantages of mono solar panels.
The older of the two mono panels are the most developed type of photovoltaic panel cells.
Monocrystalline solar panels a mono solar panel is made with high quality silicon manufactured with intricate patterns across the surface making them easy to differentiate from poly solar panels.
Perc is an innovation that is currently available in the form of mono and poly cells.

Solar panel manufacturers crave efficiency.
Thin film solar panels are the cheapest but have the lowest efficiency rating and require a lot of space to meet your energy needs.

The main difference between the two technologies is the type of silicon solar cell they use.
Polycrystalline solar cells are blended from multiple silicon sources and are slightly less efficient.
