SERIS co-develops more efficient solar panel that works even if partially shaded

Prof Armin Aberle, Chief Executive Officer of the Solar Energy Research Institute at NUS, has developed a new solar panel with local solar firm REC Solar, which can convert more of the sun’s energy into electricity, compared with a conventional panel of the same size. It is also able to work even if part of it is shaded, something conventional panels cannot do.
