As new technologies push the boundaries of sustainability, durability, and efficiency, the solar energy industry is always changing. The next solar revolution is rapidly being led by topcon technology, one of these advancements. We at Credence Solar Panels Pvt. Ltd. are dedicated to being on the cutting edge, and Topcon is a revolutionary product that merits your consideration.
However, what is Topcon, and why is it emerging as the go-to option for solar energy in the future? Let’s dissect it.
Topcon Technology: What is it?
The performance and efficiency of conventional monocrystalline PERC (Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell) solar panels are enhanced by topcon, short for Tunnel Oxide Passivated Contact, a cutting-edge solar cell technology.
The topcon cell, which was first created by the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany, consists of a thin oxide layer and a doped polysilicon layer that are positioned between the metal contact and the silicon wafer. By improving passivation and drastically lowering electron recombination, this combination increases power output from the same amount of sunlight.
What distinguishes it from PERC?
Although PERC solar cells have dominated the market recently because of their reliable performance, their durability and efficiency are starting to plateau. In contrast to PERC’s average efficiency of 22–23%, topcon technology offers a substantial increase in efficiency, usually ranging from 23% to 25% or more. Furthermore, topcon panels have slower rates of deterioration over time, which means they are better able to maintain their power output over time. Because of their lower temperature coefficient, they also function better in hotter climates, which makes them perfect for hotter areas like many portions of India. Compared to PERC, a technology that is starting to plateau in development, Topcon is significantly more forward-looking and future-proof due to its scalability and potential for future expansion, even though its manufacturing process is a little more complicated.
Why the Next Solar Wave Is Being Led by Topcon
Increased Energy Production
Topcon panels provide more power per square meter due to enhanced cell passivation and decreased losses, which makes them perfect for high-demand industrial projects or small rooftop areas.
Improved Results under Tough Circumstances
Even in India’s hotter climates, Topcon panels maintain higher efficiency because of their lower temperature coefficient.
Bifacial Integration Ideal
By absorbing light from both sides, topcon technology works well with bifacial solar panels to further increase energy generation.
Investing for the Future
With the trend toward high-efficiency solar systems, topcon is poised to become the next industry standard. Staying ahead of the curve involves making the decision now.
