The present invention relates to a solar panel system, particularly a novel solar panel design to increase performance in a cost-effective manner. The present invention includes a solar panel assembly. The solar panel assembly includes a plurality of elongated solar electric module which includes a first transparent material and a second transparent material. In addition, a solar electric material is disposed between the first transparent material and the second transparent material. The solar electric module may include an elongated array of one or more solar electric cells. Additionally, each array of the one or more solar electric cells include at least one bi-facial solar cell.
