Bifacial solar cells

Quality 0.00 · 0 views · Updated 4 days ago

A bifacial solar cell (BSC) is a photovoltaic solar cell that can produce electrical energy from both front and rear side. In contrast, monofacial solar cells produce electrical energy only when photons are incident on their front side. Bifacial solar cells and solar panels (devices that consist of multiple solar cells) can improve the electric energy output and modify the temporal power production profile compared with their monofacial counterparts.
