What’s the Difference Between a Solar Module and a Solar Panel?
When you're considering harnessing the power of the sun for your home or business, you might come across the terms "solar module" and "solar panel" and wonder, what's the difference? It's a fantastic question, and understanding the distinction can help you make informed decisions about your solar energy investments. Simply put, a solar module consists of multiple solar cells that work together to convert sunlight into electricity. Each of these cells is a small slab of semiconductor material, usually silicon, that generates electric current when exposed to sunlight. These modules are arranged together to form larger solar panels. In everyday conversation, these terms are often used interchangeably, but for those in the industry, the distinction is crucial.
