Solar Energy Technology
Interdigitated Back Contact (IBC) is one of the most complicated ways to produce solar panels. However, due to its effect on increasing the “efficiency” of the modules, it reduces the final product price and therefore, […]
The output power of a solar module not only depends on the ability of cells in converting incident sunlight into the electric current but also depends on the loss and gain mechanisms in cell and […]
Solar Edition is publishing the list of most-efficient solar panels in the solar market and industry monthly. January 2020 list is now out and compared to the previous list which was published in late 2019, […]
We want to compare Heterojunction technology (HJT) in solar panel manufacturing with interdigitated back contact (IBC) technology. We have explained in detail these two technologies in our recent posts. Therefore, to cut a long story […]
Heterojunction technology (HJT) is another type of putting thin layers of solar cells into a new structure to produce solar cells. This is for being able to absorb a wide spectrum of sunlight. How is […]
Bifacial modules have achieved rapid growth in recent years. The global installed capacity of bifacial has been rising from only 97 MW in 2016 to 7000 MW in 2019. Bifacial modules will account for 17.2% […]
Full-size “Interdigitated Back Contact” (IBC) bifacial solar module development has led to panels that are last longer and higher efficiency. The panel can absorb light from both sides, back & front. The prototype utilizes bifacial […]
The conductivity of semiconductors (Silicon & Germanium) can be adjusted by putting a small number of impurities into their crystal structures. This impurity leads to better conductivity among semiconductors. Impurities based on the number of […]
In the table above, we introduced the most efficient solar panels in 2019 sorted by their efficiencies. Although we put a lot of effort into limiting the list to “commercialized” 60-cell solar panels, in order […]
Most recent researches have focused on the production of the transparent solar cell (TSC) based on organic materials such as a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Although they are good candidates to produce very thin solar […]
