How does solar panel generate energy?
Solar energy is produced by nuclear fusion in the sun. This occurs when hydrogen atoms collide and fuse into helium, releasing vast amounts of energy. The process, called the proton-proton (PP) chain reaction, powers stars like the sun, where about 620 million metric tons of hydrogen are fused every second. These stars have temperatures around 4 million Kelvin (4 million °C, 7 million °F). Larger stars, about 1.3 times bigger than the sun, use the CNO cycle, which also converts hydrogen into helium but relies on carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen. However, less than 2% of the sun’s energy comes from this process. Both the PP chain reaction and the CNO cycle release energy in the form of waves and particles.
Types of Solar Panels
| Type of solar panel | Average efficiency | Typical lifespan (years) | Key advantage | Key disadvantage |
| Polycrystalline | 13-16% | 25-30 | Cheaper than monocrystalline | Less efficient than monocrystalline |
| Monocrystalline | 18-24% | 25-40 | Most efficient type available | More expensive than polycrystalline |
| Thin-film | 7-13% | 10-20 | Most flexible option | Low power output |
| Transparent | 1-10% | 25-35 | Blends in with windows | Low efficiency |
| Solar tiles | 10-20% | 25-30 | Blends in with roofs | Very expensive |
| Perovskite | 24-27% | 25-35 | Highest efficiency | Not yet available |
We are importing solar panels directly from different international companies, there is no third party involved in this process. So that’s why our product price is best in the market. With little margin, we sell these panels in the market. Our install teams are available almost all the time.
