What is double-sided double-glass solar energy | NenPower
Double-sided double-glass solar energy refers to a solar technology that utilizes two layers of glass to capture sunlight from both sides of a photovoltaic (PV) panel, enhancing
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.
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?
Dual-sided energy Capture: Many double glass modules are bifacial, allowing them to harness sunlight from both sides. This can lead to energy gains of up to 25%, especially when installed over reflective surfaces.
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).
