Half Cut Solar Panels

Half-Cut Solar Panels

Explaining what half-cut solar cells are doesn’t involve complex scientific explanations involving quantum mechanics. They are normal solar cells that have been cut in half. Instead of having 60 solar cells, as most panels put on roofs do, they have 120 half-sized ones. This results in lower electrical resistance that improves efficiency. An additional benefit is half cut panels resist the effects of shade better than standard solar panels. This isn’t directly due to the cells being cut in half but because of the way they are wired together.

WHY SOLAR CELLS ARE CUT IN HALF?

Solar cells are cut in half to reduce the cell to-module losses during assembly. Power loss is generally proportional to the square of the current times resistance. Therefore when cutting a solar cell in half, the power losses are reduced by a factor of four.
