Technical FAQs 4
Why do solar panels have a high transmittance?
Lower iron content impurities result in higher solar transmittance. For the most commonly used 3.2mm and 4mm thick glass in domestic applications, the visible light transmittance for solar radiation generally reaches 90% to 92%. As one of the most crucial components of solar installations, photovoltaic glass demands high transparency.
How can Photovoltaic Glass improve light transmittance?
One is to apply an anti-reflection coating on the surface of the photovoltaic glass to improve the light transmittance of the photovoltaic glass, and the second is to use a self-cleaning anti-reflection film. Photovoltaic glass achieves self-cleaning effect while increasing penetration.
Can glass improve solar energy transmission?
We begin with a discussion of glass requirements, specifically composition, that enable increased solar energy transmission, which is critical for solar applications. Next we discuss anti-reflective surface treatments of glass for further enhancement of solar energy transmission, primarily for crystalline silicon photovoltaics.
What is Solar Photovoltaic Glass?
