Technical FAQs 4

What happens if a solar glass substrate is defective?

As in all other glass manufacturing processes, solar glass substrates are subject to defects during produc-tion. Depending on the defect type and intensity, the impact of these defects can range from a reduced transmission to a considerable negative influence on the mechanical glass characteristics.

Why are solar panels so rough?

Causes for the roughness on solar panels deployed on the field over the years include cleaning processes, dust particles impinging on the glass surface due to wind, deterioration of the antireflection layer, and corrosion.

How can solarinspect ensure the quality of the finished modules?

To ensure the quality of the finished modules, the control of the dimensions and shape (rectangular-ity) of the glass substrates is essential. SolarInspect provides this capability parallel to the glass defect detection.

What is a solar glass substrate?

Manufacturers of crystalline silicon solar modules apply glass substrates on the front side of the solar modules. This front glass will either be a patterned glass or a glass with anti-reflective coating (AR). As in all other glass manufacturing processes, solar glass substrates are subject to defects during produc-tion.
