Which would you buy monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar panels?

Solar cell technology is advancing very fast. Within a few years’ silicon-perovskite cells with a conversion efficiency of 35% may be commercially available.

I would hate to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a monocrystalline installation with only 17% to 22% efficiency, if I can get a silicon-perovskite install with almost double that efficiency in just a few years.

It is the classic problem of “should we buy today’s technology or wait for tomorrow’s”?

Monocrystalline panels are known for their higher efficiency and sleeker appearance, making them a great choice if you have limited roof space and want the most power output per square foot. Polycrystalline panels, on the other hand, are generally more affordable and slightly less efficient, but they can still be a good option if you have ample roof space and are looking to save on upfront costs.

Last year, I installed solar panels at my home, and what helped me tremendously was finding a reliable resource for reviews and information. I discovered the world's #1 solar generator review site, which provided detailed comparisons and user experiences. This made it easier for me to choose the right panels and understand the long-term benefits. If you're still undecided, you might find their reviews and guides helpful as well.
