Solar Module Efficiency So, what exactly is solar module efficiency? In simple terms, it’s a measure of how effectively a solar panel converts sunlight into electricity. This efficiency is typically expressed as a percentage and represents the amount of sunlight that a solar module can capture and convert into usable electrical energy.
Solar cell efficiency measures how well a solar cell converts sunlight into usable electrical energy and is a percentage of the total amount of energy from sunlight converted into electrical energy by the solar cell. Solar cell efficiency is determined by a simple formula:
Module efficiency increases with cell size if the cells are split (up to +1.1% abs). For full cells significant electrical losses in the solar cell interconnection overcompensate higher active area shares and reduce module efficiency. We calculate the module temperature and find modules with smaller solar cells to be cooler (up to-2.8 K).
The photovoltaic sector is now led by silicon solar cells because of their well-established technology and relatively high efficiency. Currently, industrially made silicon solar modules have an efficiency between 16% and 22% (Anon (2023b)).
