First introduced in 1989, Passivated Emitter and Rear Contact (PERC) panels are modified silicon cells that have an additional layer on the back. Because this extra layer is reflective, it is able to send unused light back across the n-type and p-type junctions to generate more #energy. Better still, this reflective surface also helps to reduce rear recombination and prevent longer wavelengths from becoming heat that would otherwise impair the cell’s performance. Have you worked with PERC #panels before? Let us know in the comments. #AuroraSolar https://bit.ly/3JPEnPv

The advancements in Passivated Emitter and Rear Contact (PERC) panels since their introduction in 1989 are truly impressive. The additional reflective layer not only enhances energy generation by redirecting unused light but also mitigates performance issues caused by heat. This innovation represents a significant leap in solar technology efficiency. Has anyone had firsthand experience working with PERC panels? What benefits or challenges have you encountered in your projects? Sharing these insights could be incredibly valuable for those considering the adoption of PERC technology.
