Solar advice: Thin-film solar panels are advantageous in case of heat and shading 2/1/18, 5:00 PM - Thin-film solar modules do not use silicon cells, but other semiconductors. They offer a homogenous surface and stable yield in regions with high temperature. HS This flexible thin-film module was offered by Solar Frontier in 2016. Thin-film solar panels use an extremely fine layer of electricity-generating semi-conductors. They have a constantly homogenous surface and are available in various shades of colour. A number of manufacturers are offering CIS and CIGS panels, whose brackets made from glass, metal or plastic are coated in copper, indium, selenium and gallium. They are by now managing to achieve efficiencies of around 15.5 percent. Less efficiency, but higher yield More than 17 percent can be achieved by Cd-Te…
