Top 10 Solar Systems in the Market

Audrey J. Powers

Photovoltaic cells, or solar cells, as they are commonly referred to, have come a long way since their inception in 1941. The solar cells in the earliest days had an efficiency of around 2 percent. It was Les Hoffman, the CEO of the Hoffman Electronics Corporation who initially increased the efficiency to a staggering 14 percent.

The efficiency of a solar cell refers to the cells’ ability of transforming the incoming solar radiation into electrical current. According to the solar technology news, the continuous research and development of solar technology has lead to a new world record in the efficiency levels: 44.7 percent is the current highest level of efficiency ever achieved by a solar cell in experimental stages, and the credit for this goes to Fraunhofer Institute of Solar Energy Systems.

Installing a solar panel for residential and commercial purposes has become quite affordable – and this article brings to you the top 10 solar systems in the market.
