Why is dust coverage important in photovoltaic (PV) modules?

Introduction In photovoltaic (PV) module, the cover glass surface reflectsmore than 4% of incident light across the spectrum whichneeds to be effectively utilized for energy conversion. Addi-tional loss due to soiling has become more common issue insubstantial polluted areas due to dust coverage on solar pan-els .

Which encapsulant is best suited for glass-glass solar panels?

EPE is also best suited for Glass-Glass solar panels that utilize PERC, TOPCon, or HJT cells. As the solar industry continues to evolve, EPE demonstrates its potential to play a pivotal role in enhancing the performance and durability of solar PV modules. The EPE encapsulant combines the best properties of EVA and POE encapsulants.

What is PV encapsulation?

Among other functions, it provides cushioning to the PV cells and binds them to the top surface (glass) and rear surface (glass or backsheet) of the module. Over the years, two popular materials, EVA (Ethyl Vinyl Acetate) and POE (Polyolefin Elastomer), have been widely used for PV encapsulation.

Is Epe encapsulant a good choice for solar panels?

The advantages offered by EPE encapsulant in solar panels have led to its increasing adoption, particularly with emerging cell architectures like TOPCon. Some studies indicate that TOPCon cells are more susceptible to moisture ingress than PERC cells, making EPE a favourable choice in such scenarios.
