Flexible solar panels and rigid solar panels have the same function of generating electricity from the sunlight but they come to the table a bit differently. Flexible solar panels are thin, light, and bendable (flexible), while rigid solar panels are encased in glass (and, most often, have a metal frame).
The lightweight and flexible solar panels are lightweight and thin, giving them a clear edge in the discussion of flexible solar panels vs. rigid. Heavy things are a nemesis for RVers – we like things that don’t increase the weight we’re carrying around. They can adjust to the contour of a curved roof or even to the front cap of a 5th wheel. They’re far more adaptable than rigid panels are.
