These panels can be installed in a variety of places without compromising the integrity of the structure, and they typically are easier to install than traditional panels.

There are a few things to be aware of, though, when selecting flexible solar panels. They will typically be made of PET, a polyester based plastic, or ETFE, a fluorine based polymer. The primary difference between these two materials is the strength, durability, and corrosion resistance. PET has a lifespan up to five years, and ETFE up to ten years depending on where the panels are installed and how they are used. You’ll want to look for a solar cell that has excellent efficiency for a good power output. Note the type of adhesive or silicone used to install the panels, if appropriate, because you’ll want it to be high quality and waterproof. Using screws and brackets is another option.
