St Johns solar Conductive Glass

4 FAQs about St Johns solar Conductive Glass

What conductive substrates can be used for solar cells?

Solaronix provides a variety of conductive substrates suitable for Perovskite Solar Cells, Dye Solar Cells, or any other photo-electrochemical devices. Our fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) coated glasses ensure optimal adhesion of printed layers, a primary requirement for electrode fabrication.

What are the characteristics of glass for solar applications?

For solar applications the main attributes of glass are transmission, mechanical strength and specific weight. Transmission factors measure the ratio of energy of the transmitted to the incoming light for a specific glass and glass width. Ratio of the total energy from an AM1-5 source over whole solar spectrum from 300 - 2,500nm wavelength.

How much solar energy does commercial glass produce?

Base-line commercial glass has a solar transmission of 83.7%. I.e. 16.3% of the sun's energy do not even get to the PV material. The energy loss is due - in equal parts - to reflection on the surface and absorption within the glass due to iron impurities. The density of glass is about 2,500 kg/m 3 or 2.5kg/m 2 per 1mm width.

Which float glass is best for solar energy conversion?

Glass for maximising solar energy conversion. Pilkington Optiwhite™ is a range of extra clear low-iron float glass products with very high solar transmittance, offering improved solar energy conversion and consistent performances.
