4 FAQs about Solar double-glass module power station

What is a double glass solar module?

In the ever-evolving world of photovoltaic technology, double glass solar modules are emerging as a game-changer. By encapsulating solar cells between two layers of glass, these modules offer unparalleled durability and efficiency. But what exactly sets them apart? What are double glass solar modules?

What is a double glass module?

In contrast, double glass modules replace the polymer layer with another glass sheet, creating a robust sandwich structure. At IBC SOLAR, we use 2,0 mm x 2,0 mm glass layers, whereas some other market offerings use thinner 1,6 mm x 1,6 mm layers. This ensures greater durability and longevity.

What are glass-glass PV modules?

Glass-glass PV modules, also known as double glass solar panels, are photovoltaic modules encapsulated with tempered glass on both the front and back sides. Compared to traditional glass-backsheet modules, they offer greater durability and environmental resistance.

Why are double glass solar panels bifacial?

Thermal stability: The identical thermal expansion coefficients of the glass layers minimize stress on solar cells during temperature fluctuations. Dual-sided energy Capture: Many double glass modules are bifacial, allowing them to harness sunlight from both sides.
