The best photovoltaic solar panels
Thought I would share some information on what are rated as the best/most efficient panels available. Sanyo HIT Power N Series. The cells are hybrids of monocrystalline silicone, surrounded by ultr...

Salvo:
Whats being referred to is that many solar panels start loosing efficiency at a rate of around 1.1 % for each degree of temperature increase over 77 degrees. Some are worse and some better. Thin film technology addressed this issue and was sucessful in doing so by using amorphous silicone, but at the cost of less power per square foot.
Sanyo addressed the issue using a hybrid design consisting of monocrystalline silicone surrounded by a thin layer of amorphous silicone.
