Technical FAQs 4

Can PV modules be substituted by sustainable products?

Most of the PV modules are manufactured of glass, polymers, metals, and silicon-based solar cells. All these materials have the potential to be substituted by sustainable products. The substitution of materials for PV modules is challenging because of issues in significant unknown risks for short- and long-term reliability of the PV module.

What materials are used in solar cells?

In-depth assessments of cutting-edge solar cell technologies, emerging materials, loss mechanisms, and performance enhancement techniques are presented in this article. The study covers silicon (Si) and group III–V materials, lead halide perovskites, sustainable chalcogenides, organic photovoltaics, and dye-sensitized solar cells.

Can solar modules be substituted?

All these materials have the potential to be substituted by renewable, recyclable, cradle-to-cradle, or biodegradable products [3 - 6]. However, the substitution of materials for PV modules is challenging because of potential issues in solar module reliability (short and long term).

Can a 100% renewable solar module be substituted for a material?

The substitution of materials for PV modules is challenging because of issues in significant unknown risks for short- and long-term reliability of the PV module. Investigations for material and process routes of a 100% renewable solar module are necessary. This study investigates the suitability and reliability of different materials.
