Types of Solar PV Systems for Residential Use

Several types of solar panels are ideal for residential use. Depending on your specific needs and the layout of your roof space, our solar installers will recommend the best type for your home. Here is a brief overview of the most common types of solar panels

  • Monocrystalline Panels

    These are the most efficient and durable type of solar panels. Made from a single crystal structure, they offer the highest performance rates and longevity. However, they also tend to be more expensive than other types of panels.

  • Polycrystalline Panels

    These are made from several pieces of silicon crystals melted together, and they offer a good balance of cost and efficiency. They are slightly less efficient than monocrystalline panels, but they also tend to be less expensive.


  • Thin-film Panels

    These are the least expensive type of solar panels and can be made from a variety of materials, including silicon, cadmium telluride, and copper indium gallium selenide. They are easy to produce and can be flexible, but they are also less efficient than monocrystalline and polycrystalline panels.

  • Bifacial Panels

    This is a newer type of solar panel technology that can capture sunlight from both the front and the back of the panel, leading to higher energy production. They are usually made of monocrystalline or polycrystalline cells.

  • Perovskite Panels

    A very promising but still developing technology, perovskite solar panels have the potential to be highly efficient and flexible, with lower manufacturing costs than conventional panels.

Benefits of Residential Solar Installations

Investing in a home solar panel system isn't just about reducing your carbon footprint; it has numerous other benefits.

  • Energy Independence and Security

    By producing your electricity, you gain freedom from fluctuating electricity prices and potential grid power outages. You can even sell excess energy back to the electricity grid, turning your home into a mini power station.


  • Significant Cost Savings

    Solar power systems can drastically reduce your electricity bills. Over time, the system can pay for its installation costs through these savings. And with our interest-free payment plans, the initial investment is more manageable.

  • Environmental Sustainability

    Using solar power instead of fossil fuels reduces your carbon emissions, helping mitigate climate change. Solar panels produce clean, green electricity, reducing your home's carbon footprint.

  • Increase in Property Value

    A solar power system can increase your property's value. Potential buyers understand the benefits of lower energy bills and environmental sustainability.


  • Eligibility for Incentives and Rebates

    Government incentives like Small Scale Technology Certificates (STCs) make installing solar panels even more affordable. These rebates can significantly offset the cost of your system, making solar power an even more attractive option.

Financing and Incentives for Residential Solar Installations

The transition to solar power is not only beneficial for the environment but is financially viable too. Perth Solar Direct offers various financing options and assists with availing incentives for residential solar installations.
