Nassau crystalline silicon solar glass

What is crystalline silicon photovoltaics?

Crystalline silicon photovoltaics is the most widely used photovoltaic technology. Crystalline silicon photovoltaics are modules built using crystalline silicon solar cells (c-Si). These have high efficiency, making crystalline silicon photovoltaics an interesting technology where space is at a premium.

What type of glass is used for solar panels?

Crystalline silicon solar cells are connected together and then laminated under toughened or heat strengthened, high transmittance glass to produce reliable, weather resistant photovoltaic modules. The glass type that can be used for this technology is a low iron float glass such as Pilkington Optiwhite™.

Can glass frit be optimized for the frontal sub-grid of industrial N-Topcon solar cells?

In this study, we aim to optimize the glass frit used for the frontal sub-grid of industrial n-TOPCon solar cells using inverse analysis based on known cell performance parameters. The overall morphology and internal structure at the Ag–Si interface of intact cells were analyzed by etching experiments.

What type of glass can be used for c-Si?

The glass type that can be used for this technology is a low iron float glass such as Pilkington Optiwhite™. NSG Group can provide additional functionalities like anti-soiling or UV/IR blocking on request. Bi-facial c-Si modules are growing in prominence due to their higher efficiency. These module capture energy from both the front and back sides.
