Spanish bifacial solar panels

How many bifacial solar panels are there in Andalusia?

The project has been declared one of strategic interest by the regional government of Andalusia.

What are bifacial solar panels?

Bifacial solar panels (modules) have solar cells on both sides of the unit, with glass on the front and a clear fluoropolymer sheet on the back, allowing them to produce up to 25% more energy than the typical monofacial solar panel widely used today. Bifacial modules can be used with standard racking and inverters for any type of solar array.

Are bifacial solar panels worth considering?

Bifacial solar panels are well worth considering as they generate energy from both the front and back sides, delivering more energy to your home than one-sided solar panels.

What contributes to the popularity of bifacial solar panels?

Besides the benefit of extra backside generation, the bifacial exemption from Section 201 trade tariffs has likely contributed to the technology’s proliferation in the market. Additionally, tracker manufacturers reported that the large majority of recent solar projects using their tracking systems include bifacial panels.
