What are Mono-crystalline solar panels?

Mono-crystalline solar panels are made from purified silicon, formed into a crystal ingot and cut into round wafers, giving them a distinctive white diamond look. Mono-crystalline panels are the most efficient of all technologies, requiring much less roof space than other panels.

They don’t contain heavy metals and have a proven track record within the industry, with an estimated useful life of 35-40 years.

The efficiency of mono-crystalline solar panels can be affected by low-light, heat and shade. Suntrix panels have better low-light performance than the industry standard and overheating is minimised by ensuring adequate airflow beneath the panels.
