The different types of solar panels include monocrystalline, polycrystalline, thin-film, and organic solar cells. Monocrystalline solar cells use a single crystal of silicon to generate electricity, while polycrystalline cells use multiple crystals of silicon. Thin film solar cells use a combination of amorphous silicon and cadmium telluride or copper indium gallium selenide. Organic solar cells utilize polymers instead of semiconductors.
