Thin-film solar cells don’t use silicon wafers but are highly inefficient and rarely used. Silicon wafer-based photovoltaic cells are the essential building blocks of modern solar technology.
Silicon wafer-based solar cells have long been the industry standard in photovoltaic applications worldwide. That’s unlikely to change anytime soon. Research and innovation are always ongoing but primarily focused on improving silicon wafer technology — not replacing it.
In recent years, the diameter of silicon wafers manufacturers use for high-efficiency solar cells has increased — and so has the performance. Wafers as large as 210mm 2 (M12) are increasingly used in PV cells — a 35% increase in diameter from the original M0.
The price of solar-grade silicon wafers regularly hit record lows thanks to rising demand, improved technology, and economies of scale. Government incentives — both to individuals and manufacturers — also contribute significantly to the falling cost and rising adoption of solar.
