I'd trust China to do it though

MODERATORS
Are they any more efficient than the ones that have been around for a decade or more at this point?
Yes, Chinese solar panels have the highest efficiency https://www.pv-magazine.com/2026/06/08/all-solar-cell-efficiencies-at-a-glance-updated-7
and it has significantly improved over the past decade https://www.nlr.gov/pv/cell-efficiency
both things you could've looked up in the time it took you to write your comment I might add
You anrent obligated to answer, I might add. I didn't have time to look it up, so cool it with the scolding crap.
you're welcome
Hey, I appreciate your posting and your comments very much on this site, but this person was just asking a legit question, there's no need for the snark. Hope you're doing ok, lots of love your way <3
fair, I read the question of whether solar panels improved in the past decade as snark, but yeah could've just given the links without extra drama
If this website had any sense you'd get banned for behavior like this.
You're free to find a different forum which is more inline with your sensibilities.
Pretty sure I've seen these on temu
