Should I choose monocrystalline, thin film or polycrystalline solar panels?

0

Between monocrystalline and polycrystalline there isn’t a lot of difference except that a polycrystalline panel is slightly larger than the equivalent wattage in monocrystalline. However, that extra space can take up valuable rooftop real estate in terms of adding extra panels at a later date. Thin film panels are larger again and there are other issues to consider, explained in further detail here. We generally recommend monocrystalline for grid connect situations.
