From digital nomads to outdoor enthusiasts, flexible solar panels are a great on-the-go option for providing clean, renewable energy wherever life takes you. But with so many options to choose from, how do you know which model is the best choice for you?

In this article, we’ll go over what flexible solar panels are, how they differ from rigid solar panels, and the best products currently available from top solar companies.

Flexible Solar Panels Vs. Rigid Solar Panels
A typical monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar panel is constructed of silicon wafers that are generally a bit thicker than a strand of human hair. Although it’s relatively thin, the layer is rigid and easily broken, requiring most solar cells to be protected with metals and glass casings.

Flexible solar panels belong to a family of solar products called “thin film panels.” Flexible panels are constructed with silicon layers over 300 times smaller than those of standard solar panels, allowing them to be flexed and still retain their functionality.

The greatest obstacle for flexible solar panels is that they’re much less efficient than rigid panels. Today’s average rigid solar panels are about 16-20% efficient. Thin-film flexible solar panels, however, are only 7-15% efficient, meaning you’ll need more of them to produce the same amount of electricity a rigid panel would produce.

Flexible solar panels probably won’t fit the bill for rooftop energy production, but they’re a great option for anyone needing lightweight and portable power. Durable and lightweight, flexible solar panels are ideal for small-scale, mobile applications such as for RVs, boats and other energy needs that don’t require large power outputs.
