What is a Solar Panel?
The Solar Panels System is a modern technology of renewable energy system encompassing a setup of components; solar panels, cables, and solar inverters. Solar panels are photovoltaic systems (PV) that consist of an array of solar cells that utilizes the sun’s energy, direct sunlight, and produce electricity. The electricity generated from the solar cells is DC electricity (direct current) which can not help run the electrical appliances. The DC electricity generated from the solar panels runs through a solar inverter which helps convert it into AC electricity (Alternating Current) of the frequency usable by the appliances and the main grid.
In Pakistan, Solar Panels are the most in-demand energy production system for running the appliances in residential, commercial, and industrial sectors due to the ever-increasing fear of long hours of load shedding and hike in electricity prices. The solar power system promises electricity generation having high energy efficiency, net-zero carbon footprint, and a significant reduction in electricity bills.

How Does a Solar Panel Work?
Solar Photovoltaic modules or solar panel systems consist of solar cells comprising high-efficiency semiconductors that are directly involved in utilizing the sun’s energy and generating electricity.
A combination of a series of solar cells makes a solar panel, and a chain of multiple solar panels makes a solar array. A solar cell is usually made of silicon wafers due to its key features of higher efficiency rate, durability, and heat resistance. The solar panels work by utilizing the capacity of their solar cells, made of silicon semiconductors, which are the basic fundamental unit of a solar panel. These electrical semiconductors have a distinct positive and negative terminal making a complete electrical circuit. An array of photons is absorbed from the sunlight by the solar cells; the photons’ energy then strikes the silicon electrons out of their atomic orbits resulting in energy production.
The maximum power point tracking unit is a digital charge controller that optimizes the energy output from the solar PV system to the battery voltage. It helps tone down the DC electricity generated from the solar panel to a level that can charge the storage battery.
Types of Solar Panels
There are usually two different solar panels in the market which are characterized according to the type of silicon crystal used in them. The solar panel efficiency is highly dependent on the type of solar module and the location while installing solar panels. Gel Pakistan brings two different solar panels as follows;
1. Monocrystalline Solar Panels
A monocrystalline solar panel is made by employing a highly modern technology whereby a single crystal of pure silicon is embedded into the matrix making a cylindrical array of monocrystalline solar cells. A monocrystalline solar panel is usually identified by its aesthetic appearance having a uniform rectangle sleek body in dark hues.
The key features of Monocrystalline Panels are as follows;
- Higher efficiency rate (15 - 20%)
- Space-efficient
- Aesthetic appearance
- Longevity
- Good efficiency even in low light conditions
Major Brands Solar Panels involved in the monocrystalline solar panel production with maximum efficiency and the highest power outputs are;
- Canadian solar
- Sunpower solar panels
- Longi solar panel
- JA Solar
- Jinko solar panels
2. Polycrystalline Solar Panel
Polycrystalline solar panels are also called multi crystalline solar panels, consisting of multiple crystals of raw silicon molded to form a single photovoltaic cell. Multicrystalline solar panels are physically identified by their square bodies having distinct blue colored panels.
The key features of Polycrystalline Solar Panels are as follows;
- Efficiency rate 15 - 17%
- More budget-friendly
- Requires more space
- Longevity
- Aesthetic square appearance
Major Brands in the business of manufacturing the best quality polycrystalline solar panel with a long life span and durability and price efficiency are
- Canadian solar
- Trina solar
The energy produced from the monocrystalline solar panels is of higher peak efficiency owing to the module efficiency which is substantially enhanced by the singular large crystal solar PV panels. Moreover, the efficiency of any type of solar panel can also be improved by employing the half cell structure technique thereby, increasing their reliability.
Benefits of Solar Power
The merits and advantages of the solar panel system have made it the most popular electricity-producing system in recent years. The ever-increasing demand for energy to run the industries and households has exhausted the fossil fuel reserves resulting in an increase in the electricity costs by ten folds. The advantage to opt for solar energy are mentioned below;
1. Clean and Renewable Energy Source
The advantage of employing solar power systems is that it uses the natural energy resource, the sun, for electricity generation. Solar energy is limitless, free of cost, and a clean energy source compared to the electricity produced from the conventional method of exhausting fossil fuels, like coal and natural gas, which increases the overall carbon footprint of the world.
The risks of endangering the natural ecosystem associated with the traditional energy generation technology, whereby a vast space of land and water body is damaged, can be avoided by relying on a highly space-efficient solar PV system.
2. Reduction in Energy Costs
Solar panel systems are the most innovative form of renewable energy technology, allowing a notable decrease in energy bills without compromising on energy output to fulfill the energy consumption requirement. Solar power will make one independent from the impacts of the increase in the electricity rates with the hike in the value of the fuel by the international energy agency.
Investment payback can be covered within 2 to 3 years after the initial installation costs of a solar panel system. Moreover, the Net Metering services provided by the solar panel brands enable the solar system owner with the facility to exchange the excess energy produced with the credit units from the local utility company during off-peak hours.
3. Self-sufficiency
The solar system allows its owner independence from the main-power grid irrespective of the locality. Living off-grid in remote areas far from the main-electric grid can be made possible by opting for solar power. The extra costs needed to arrange the electrical poles in remote areas by the local utility company are not worth the investment when solar technology can take care of the energy needs. However, to live on-grid or off-grid is an independent choice of a consumer.
Moreover, grid security is also worth noting when multiple small power plants surround a single power grid. The grid can thus fulfill the energy utility of a region without falling short of supply due to overloading or being prone to blackouts.
4. Low Maintenance Cost of the Solar System
The solar panel system is a durable and long-lasting energy solution built with materials that can withstand weather conditions like warm weather, rain, and even hailstorm. The life expectancy of a single solar system can be around 15 to 20 years, and they do not usually require a lot of heavy maintenance. However, regular cleaning of solar panels is mandatory for their optimum performance to generate electricity that may require the services of a specialized cleaning agency.
The only maintenance cost that may be required to perform after 5 to 10 years is the change of inverters that are extensively working 24/7 to convert the electricity generated from the solar panels and make it available for use.
