Con la madurez tecnológica de la producción de paneles bifaciales, a partir de 2018, estos han ido ganando una creciente presencia, y se presume que en 2021 constituirán el 30% del mercado mundial de paneles solares. Los paneles bifaciales, al generar también por el reverso, pueden aumentar eficiencia entre un 5 y un 30% de una misma área. Se revisó la literatura nacional e internacional sobre el tema y se realizaron simulaciones de un proyecto real con paneles bifaciales de un parque que será ubicado en la provincia de Las Tunas, asumiendo un albedo de 0,202. En el artículo se concluye que es factible evaluar la introducción en Cuba de paneles fotovoltaicos bifaciales para futuros proyectos de parques de ángulo fijo y de seguimiento horizontal de un solo eje.]]></p></abstract>
