What is a double glass solar module?
In the ever-evolving world of photovoltaic technology, double glass solar modules are emerging as a game-changer. By encapsulating solar cells between two layers of glass, these modules offer unparalleled durability and efficiency. But what exactly sets them apart? What are double glass solar modules?
What is a double glass module?
In contrast, double glass modules replace the polymer layer with another glass sheet, creating a robust sandwich structure. At IBC SOLAR, we use 2,0 mm x 2,0 mm glass layers, whereas some other market offerings use thinner 1,6 mm x 1,6 mm layers. This ensures greater durability and longevity.
What is a dual-glass module?
Dual-glass type modules (also called double glass or glass-glass) are made up of two glass surfaces, on the front and on the rear with a thickness of 2.0 mm each. Some manufacturers, in order to reduce the weight of the modules, have opted for a thickness of 1.6 mm. Dualsun has chosen to stay with a thickness of 2.0 mm for reasons explained below.
What is the bifaciality of a double glass module?
Bifaciality: The bifaciality of double glass modules produces a gain of around 10-11% compared to the power measured on the front panel alone, for TOPCon type modules under so-called BNPI (bifacial nameplate irradiance) test conditions.
What is a glass-backsheet module?
In the case of a glass-backsheet module, not only is the upper glass layer thicker (3.2 mm versus 2.0 mm) but also this layer is fully tempered glass, whereas in the case of a thickness of 2.0 mm, the glass is only semi-tempered due to technical limitations of the tempering process.
Why are double glass modules symmetrical?
Mechanical constraints on cells: the fact that the structure of the double glass modules is symmetrical implies that the cells are located on a so-called neutral line, the upper part of the module being in compression during a downward mechanical load and the lower glass surface being in tension.
