Let me tell you something first in order to better explain the subject. Solar panels are made up of identical solar cells. Solar cells are the black squares that are all connected in series in one long string across the panel. If a single cell in a solar panel is shaded from any source, that cell will now produce less power.
Solar panels are multiple solar cells connected in series and parallel to produce a certain power output. One PV cell is unfeasible for most applications as it can only produce about 0.5 V.
