2. Monocrystalline silicon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monocrystalline_silicon

   Due to the significantly higher production rate and steadily decreasing costs of poly-silicon, the market share of mono-Si has been decreasing: in 2013, monocrystalline solar cells had a market share of 36%, which translated into the production of 12.6 GW of photovoltaic capacity, [7] but the market share had dropped below 25% by 2016. Despite ...

3. Crystalline silicon - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystalline_silicon

   First generation solar cells are made of crystalline silicon, also called, conventional, traditional, wafer-based solar cells and include monocrystalline (mono-Si) and polycrystalline (multi-Si) semiconducting materials. Second generation solar cells or panels are based on thin-film technology and are of commercially significant importance.

6. Solar cell - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_cell

   Usually, solar panels are given a lifespan of 25–30 years before they get decommissioned. [178] The International Renewable Energy Agency estimated that the amount of solar panel electronic waste generated in 2016 was 43,500–250,000 metric tons. This number is estimated to increase substantially by 2030, reaching an estimated waste volume ...

   A solar cell (also called photovoltaic cell or photoelectric cell) is a solid state electrical device that converts the energy of light directly into electricity by the photovoltaic effect, which is a physical and chemical phenomenon. It is a form of photoelectric cell, defined as a device whose electrical characteristics, such as current ...
