Crystalline Module

Definition

Solar panels made of crystalline silicon. These are currently the most common type of solar panel, with proven reliability.

Cost Considerations

Monocrystalline is the more efficient of the two types, and costs about $0.75 per watt, but polycrystalline is much cheaper to produce, and costs about $0.62 per watt. Therefore overall it is the better value.

Costs vary greatly by region (and even by zip code). To get free estimates from local contractors, please indicate yours.
