6 FAQs about Double-sided double-glass downgraded components

What is a double glass module?

The double glass module design offers not only much higher reliability and longer durability but also significant Balance of System cost savings by eliminating the aluminum frame of conventional modules and frame-grounding requirements. The application of double-glass modules covers multiple markets including utility, residential and commercial.

Why are double-glass modules important?

Double-glass modules have increased resistance to cell micro-cracking, potential induced degradation, module warping, degradation from UV rays, and sand abrasion, as well as alkali, acids or salt mist.

What is the electrical performance of BYD double-glass modules?

The electrical performance of the BYD double-glass modules was as expected for multicrystalline cells, with power bins ranging from 245W to 265W for 60-cell modules, and from 295W to 315W for 72-cell modules. The modules were subjected to numerous accelerated ageing tests.

What is a double glass c-Si PV module?

Recently several double-glass (also called glass–glass or dual-glass modules) c-Si PV modules have been launched on the market, many of them by major PV manufacturers. These modules use a sheet of tempered glass at the rear of the module instead of the conventional polymer-based backsheet. There are several reasons why this structure is appealing.

Are double glass modules better than traditional modules?

Compared to traditional modules with backsheet, modules with double glass are stronger and more durable, presenting less degradation due to thermal cycling stress. Results from the thermal cycling test up to 400 cycles show about 35% to 43% less degradation with double- glass modules than with traditional modules with backsheet (Fig. 3).

Are double-glass PV modules durable?

Double-glass PV modules are emerging as a technology which can deliver excellent performance and excellent durability at a competitive cost. In this paper a glass–glass module technology that uses liquid silicone encapsulation is described. The combination of the glass–glass structure and silicone is shown to lead to exceptional durability.
