 +====== PV efficiency ======
 +The efficiency of a [[photovoltaic_more|photovoltaic panel]] is defined as follows:
  
 +$\eta = \frac{E^-}{I+}$
 +^$\eta$ |Efficiency [%] |
 +^$E^-$ |Electricity produced by the PV panel [W/m<sup>2</sup>] |
 +^$I^+$ |Solar irradiance [W/m<sup>2</sup>] |
 +
 +Next table contains the expected evolution of PV panels efficiency classified by technology.
 +
 +^Technology/Efficiency <sup>[[#References|[1]]]</sup> ^2012 ^2020 ^2035-2050 ^
 +|**Monocristallin silicon** |14-20% |23% |25% |
 +|**Polycristalin silicon** |13-15% |19% |21% |
 +|**Amorphous silicon** |6-9% |12% |15 % |
