Even though this is the most expensive form of silicon, it remains due the most popular to its high efficiency and durability and probably accounts for about half the market for solar cells. Polycrystalline silicon (or simply poly) is cheaper to manufacture, but the penalty is lower efficiency with the best measured at around 18%.
As one of the PV technologies with a long standing development history, the record efficiency of silicon solar cells at lab scale already exceeded 24% from about 20 years ago (Zhao et al., 1998).
