Types of Solar Panels


Polycrystalline Panels

Polycrystalline solar cells are a blue colour, with the individual crystals being visible from multiple angles. The cells are cut to a square shape which gives the best power production for a given panel size. Aiming is not critical as the cells are picking up the light from many different angles.



Monocrystalline Panels

Monocrystalline solar cells appear black in colour, are of a rigid construction and do not fill the entire panel area. As a result they only effectively pick up light when correctly aimed towards the sun. They are durable in construction but do not perform quite as well as polycrystalline cells in excessive heat.



Amorphous Panels

Amorphous solar cells are of a non crystalline structure and are purple in colour. They are flexible and their wiring gives them better performance in shaded conditions. To achieve the desired output the panel has to be much larger than monocrystalline or polycrystalline panels.



Budget Solar Panels

For those of us who are not sure of the value or practicality of Solar Power, we now offer a lower initial cost range of solar panels. These budget level panels are a great way to enter the market and hundreds of dollars cheaper.

Please remember that you may not receive all teh benefits from the budget version, as you would get from our premium range of panels.
