Which solar panels are best?

Ready to make the switch to a more eco-friendly option and install solar, but not sure which solar panels are best, or what to look for in solar panels?

There are two major types of panels used in home systems around Australia, mono- or multi-crystalline

Mono crystalline panels are usually black and tend to be more efficient, while multi crystalline are dark blue and some believe they have better temperature tolerance.

That said, the type of solar panel may not be as important as the price, power output, and warranties. For example, you’ll need to consider how much roof space you have. If you have a lot of space, you could easily install a cheaper, less efficient set of panels, but just add more of them.

Smaller roofs will fit fewer panels, so will need more efficiency – although the installation cost will generally be lower with fewer panels.

When it comes to solar energy in Australia, you are best to talk to a professional solar panel company who can advise you on the best options specific to your home.
