Our dual glass modules use the same internal circuit connection as a traditional glass-backsheet module but feature heat-strengthened glass on both sides. We produce the back glass with a unique drilling technique that ensures the reliability of both the junction box installation and the module.
Appling the lattice pattern on the rear glass boosts the front-side power by about 1.7%, but lowers the bifaciality factors by about eight percentages from 72% to 64%. The energy yield gain of glass/glass bifacial module is about 6% during the period of investigation.
The energy yield gain of glass/glass bifacial module is about 6% during the period of investigation. However, it can be increased to above 10% with optical enhanced effects of the reflective coating on the rear glass.
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.
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.
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.
