What Does PERC Stand For?

PERC stands for Passivated Emitter And Rear Cell Solar Cells

PERC, or Passivated Emitter and Rear Cell Solar Cells, is an advanced photovoltaic technology designed to enhance the efficiency and performance of solar panels. By incorporating a passivation layer on the rear surface of the cell, PERC cells reduce electron recombination, thus improving light absorption and increasing overall energy conversion efficiency. This innovation results in greater power output, making PERC solar cells a popular choice in the renewable energy sector for maximizing energy generation in various applications.
