Which side is the front side of solar glass

How do double glass solar panels work?

The working principle of double glass panels slightly varies from single glass solar panels. Since double glass solar panels have glass on both sides, so when the sunlight falls on the front glass, the solar panel produces electricity.

Why are double glass solar panels called double glass panels?

Double glass solar panels are named double glass panels because they have glass on both sides which produces a little more electricity and gives more efficiency than single glass panels. The reason of this increased efficiency is because of addition of glass in the back as a replacement of polymer sheet in case of single glass solar panels.

Are single glass solar panels better than double glass?

Single glass solar panels are affordable and cheaper than double glass solar panels, therefore they are available in the market easily and more in quantity than double glass panels. They also require less materials and time to be manufactured which also causes a production of wide range of single glass panels.

Why do solar panels use single glass?

These solar panels use single glass for their protection which can be harmed by severe and bad weather conditions leading to the decrease in efficiency and performance of solar panels. Single glass panels have an aluminium frame around them which loses its beauty when exposed to bad weather for a long time.
