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™.
Glass provides mechanical, chemical, and UV protection to solar panels, enabling these devices to withstand weathering for decades. The increasing demand for solar electricity and the need to reduce anthropogenic carbon emissions demands new materials and processes to make solar even more sustainable.
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.
This contribution summarizes the role of the cover glass in PVs, highlighting some of the most recent and exciting research results of glassy materials for solar silicon photovoltaic applications. The glass community has plenty of opportunities to develop new materials and processes that may reduce our carbon emissions and environmental footprint.
