Half Cut Solar Panels: Popularity & Advantages

The shift towards solar energy is rapidly gaining momentum across Australia. Recently, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese highlighted that Australia now boasts over 3.6 million solar photovoltaic installations, with a combined capacity exceeding 34 gigawatts. This remarkable achievement would not have been possible without the collective efforts of the country’s citizens.

As demand for solar panels surges, so does the variety of available solar technologies, including inverters and batteries with cutting-edge features. One standout option is the half-cut solar panel. But what exactly are half-cut solar panels? How do they differ from traditional panels, and what long-term benefits do they offer? Today, we’ll answer these questions with insights from an Arise Solar expert.

Half-Cut Solar Panels are composed of silicon cells that are laser-cut into two equal parts, also known as twin cells. These two half-cells, when combined, are more efficient and powerful than a single full cell.

Advantages:

Increased Power Output: The phrase “more is better” fits perfectly here. Cutting the cell in half actually increases its efficiency by allowing it to capture more sunlight. Both half-cells work together to send more captured energy to the inverter, resulting in higher overall power generation.

Lower Risk of Power Loss: Half-cut solar panels are typically wired into two separate halves. This means that if one half is shaded, covered, or damaged, the other half can continue working independently, minimizing power loss.

Higher Energy Generation: Splitting the cells effectively doubles the number of active cells in the panel. For instance, a traditional full-cell panel may have 60 cells, while a half-cut panel would have 120 active cells. The more cells available to capture sunlight, the more electricity the panel can produce, leading to a few percentage points of increased energy generation.

Cost-Effective: With the growing competition in the market, companies are offering the latest solar technologies, such as half-cut panels, at competitive prices. These panels not only cost less due to high demand and availability but also provide faster payback on investment thanks to their improved energy generation.
