Organic PV Film Thin Cells. Organic PV film thin cells can''t compete with other variations of thin film solar panels. They''re the least efficient in converting solar energy to electric energy and have the shortest life span of all four types. However, they''re cheaper and made of organic materials which can make them a more desirable option.
