Solar-cell efficiency is the portion of energy in the form of sunlight that can be converted via photovoltaics into electricity by the solar cell. The efficiency of the solar cells used in a photovoltaic system, in combination with latitude and climate, determines the annual energy output of the system.

PV cell efficiency increases with solar irradiance, as the greater number of photons associated with higher solar irradiance creates more electron–hole pairs and consequently more current in the photovoltaic cell. The packing factor of a PV, defined as the fraction of absorber area occupied by the photovoltaic cells, significantly affects
The current highest efficiency perovskite/Si tandems from Oxford 35 (28%) or EPFL 36 (25.2%) do not provide information about the efficiency of a silicon solar cell comparable to that used in the tandem, making an estimate of the efficiency boost impossible.

Laboratory level efficiencies of various photovoltaic (PV) technologies . The output of the solar cell varies with atmospheric conditions like temperature, dust and soil, wind velocity, humidity etc.
The PV cell efficiency is inversely proportional to the temperature due to the band gap properties of silicon, which is due to the inherent characteristics of the solar cell. When temperature increases, the reverse saturation current of the solar cell increases and thereby reduces the open circuit voltage of the cell.
