Frequently Asked Questions
1# What are bifacial solar panels, and how do they work?
Bifacial panels generate power from both sides. The front captures direct sunlight, while the rear absorbs reflected light from surfaces like snow, gravel, or metal roofing. This increases total output and ROI.
2# Are bifacial panels worth it for commercial projects in Canada?
Yes. In high-reflectivity environments like snow-covered areas or white commercial rooftops, bifacial panels can deliver up to 30% more energy than traditional panels, maximizing yield and long-term value.
3# What’s the advantage of bifacial solar panels over traditional panels?
Bifacial solar panels generate energy from both sides, capturing reflected light from the ground or nearby surfaces. This can boost total energy production by 10–30%, making them more efficient than standard mono-facial panels, especially in commercial setups like rooftops, carports, or snowy fields.
4# Where can these high-wattage bifacial solar panels be installed?
These panels are best suited for commercial rooftops, large-scale solar fields, carports, ground-mounted systems with reflective surfaces, and
large off-grid residential systems.
5# Are these bifacial durable enough for Canadian weather?
Yes. Elios bifacial panels are double-glass, high-resistance units rated for snow, ice, and wind loads, making them ideal for year-round performance in Canadian climates.
