Technical FAQs 4

Is sin x a good coating for solar module glass?

SiN x (n ~ 2–2.3) is another high-index material known for its outstanding chemical and mechanical stability. While these layers have been extensively used for optical coatings, their application in coatings for solar module glass does not appear to have been previously explored.

Do anti-soiling and anti-reflection coatings improve the efficiency of solar PV systems?

Although anti-soiling and anti-reflection coating solutions improve the efficiency of a solar PV system, to ensure feasible power output, the coated surface’s lifespan should match the PV system’s lifespan.

Why do PV modules need a transparent anti-reflection coating?

Therefore, the reflection of incident rays by cells or mirrors results in increased energy loss; thus, a transparent anti-reflection coating is required to prevent these losses. Wind's velocity affects the PV module’s efficiency both favourably and unfavourably.

Is TiO2 a good photocatalyst for PV glass?

Conclusion To achieve AR, hydrophobicity, and photocatalytic self-cleaning properties in a single film for PV glass, an effective TiO2 system was developed as the photocatalyst to couple with the ordered AR structure of SiO 2 followed by a top-layer design.
