Flexible solar panels are constructed by sandwiching the solar cells between layers of a polymer.
How to make flexible solar panels.
In order to make a flexible solar panel those silicon wafers must be sliced down to just a few micrometers wide.
Flexible solar panels made of ultra thin silicon cells have been around for a while.
Now what you need to keep in mind is that the flexible solar panels make use of monocrystalline wafers.
Using these ultra thin silicon wafers gives solar panels many unique properties including flexibility for some models.
The watt price of the flexible solar panels is higher than the rigid panels.
The transfer rate of the flexible solar panels is also about 23 that is high when compared to traditional panels.
This is also seen in part 7 and part 8 of the video.
