Polycrystalline Monocrystalline Solar Panels

Monocrystalline solar panels are dark black in color while polycrystalline solar panels are blue in color.

Polycrystalline monocrystalline solar panels.

Polycrystalline solar panels will appear somewhat differently in terms of color. Polycrystalline solar cells are manufactured like monocrystalline panels a seed crystal is placed into molten silica. This cooling process causes multiple crystals to form. However instead of pulling out the silicon seed crystal the whole vat of silicon cools.

Polycrystalline solar panels are the blue colored solar panels that have a less efficiency level. If the color of your solar roof matters to you you should know that monocrystalline vs. 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.
