Unlike monofacial panels that only use front-side illumination, bifacial models capture additional 10-30% energy from reflected light (albedo). Their solar cells are specially arranged with wider spacing to optimize rear-side exposure, and they typically use advanced cell technologies like PERC or TOPCon for higher bifaciality factors (65-90%).
Bifacial solar panels use the technology of active solar cells on both sides, so they can pick the solar energy that is “coming” from below. Using my expertise as an electrical engineer and experience with different types of solar panels, I decided to try and evaluate the bifacial technology and tell you if they are worth it at the end of the day.
Bifacial modules are manufactured in many designs, many of which don’t have aluminum frames. Frameless bifacial solar panels are considered more aesthetically pleasing by many. The active surface on the rear side means that bifacial solar panels perform better in diffuse light, such as the overcast weather.
Bifacial solar panels are not suitable for rooftop installations but may work well with residential ground-mounted solar systems. The ideal use case for bifacial solar panels is in commercial and utility-scale solar installations.
