Thin Film Solar Panels For Home Use - Thin Panel Versus Thick Panel

So do you want to know about the thin film solar panel? I understand how a lot of people want to use solar energy to power their homes. Solar panels are a viable solar energy source, both environmentally and economically.
I am a green person myself; I use solar systems to power my own home. And guess what?
I was able to save a lot of money on my electricity bill, and so can you!
Now let me ask you a question- You all know the traditional thick panels, right?
Of course, you do. Most of you have seen these on many roof tops.
Get this- Thin film solar panels are the newer, thinner type of panel that has the potential to make solar energy much more affordable.
Thin panel versus thick panel
The main reason why solar units have not been widely affordable in the past is because thick panels are made of expensive materials, and they cost much to manufacture.
On the other hand, thin panels are made of much cheaper materials, and the cost of production is almost 3 times less than that of the first generation of panels, which means that they are much more affordable.
Thin film also means that the solar cell is smaller, lighter weight, and more flexible than traditional cells. Thin systems pack more wattage in less space.
Unlike thick panels that need a steel structure to hold them in place, thin film solar panels can be integrated into the roof or wall itself.
Warning: Thin film panels are very practical to use, there are small portable solar units that can be carried with you anywhere you go.
With new thin film solar panels the price of solar systems is coming down!

You can still buy the components from your local hardware and do it yourself.
