Internet Shopping Tip !

While shopping for solar on the Internet check to see if the websites you visit are running "Pay Per Click" ads for other solar panel dealers on their websites.
 

Why would a legitimate business advertise their competitors on their own website? Are these websites really "ad mills" which make money for the website owners when you click on these ads or are they real solar dealers ?

AT SOLATRON SOLAR IS NOT JUST WHAT WE DO. SOLAR IS ALL WE DO.

Busy, Busy Busy

Are you getting nothing but busy signals and answering machines from all of the other solar panel dealers when trying to place your order ? Many dealers on the Internet are not on the phone dealing with customers like they claim on their answering machines, they're simply not there.

And if they're not there to even take your order, where do you think they'll be when you have a question or a problem ?

We're here and we answer our phones.

The Latest Information On Residential Solar Panels

Solar Panels With Mono Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells

In 1954 while experimenting with semiconductors, Bell Laboratories developed the first silicon solar cell doped with specific impurities that would begin the evolution of what would become today's high efficiency solar technology.  Today Mono crystalline or single crystalline solar cells are produced primarily by the Czochralski (Cz) process. The large diameter single crystal ingots that are created from this process are cut into thin wafers using thin wire saws. Conductive energy collection grids are silkscreened onto the surface of these wafers and a functional solar cell is produced. Solar panels that utilize single crystalline solar cells offer among the highest efficiencies available on today's commercial market.

Solar Panels That Utilize Poly Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells

Solar cells that are created from polycrystalline or (multi crystalline) technology are cut from a silicon boule that has been casted from molten silicon and allowed to cool. The rate that the silicon is allowed to cool effects the size of the crystals that are formed. The multi crystalline solar cell is grown from lower grade silicon material which forms multifaceted crystals that grows in multiple directions. Conventional multi crystalline solar cells typically have a slightly lower efficiency resulting in larger individual cells and thus typically a slightly larger module. All of this has changed with the advent of the new silicon nitride multi crystalline cells which are rated as high or even higher efficiency than similarly sized mono crystalline cells. Most solar panels that are made today use polycrystalline solar cells.

Ribbon Silicon Solar Panels

A process which cost less than other processes is known as "Ribbon Growth". Silicon is formed directly into thin wafers which avoid the expensive process of sawing silicon from a solid silicon boule. One such method is known as "Edge defined film fed growth" starts with two crystal seeds. A thin layer of silicon is formed as the seeds are pulled from a molten vat of silicon which produces a continuous ribbon of silicon. Solar panels that that use this technology are effective at saving material but the quality of the material produced is not as high as the Czochralski (Cz) process. Cell efficiency may also be reduced. Solar panels that use this type of technology are not as common as more traditional higher efficiency technologies.
