GoodWe''s Solution for Highly Corrosive Environments in Southeast Asia
Endowed with abundant solar resources, Southeast Asia has witnessed remarkable growth in PV installed capacity. However, the region''s geographical characteristics of
Corrosion in solar panels represents a significant challenge that can negatively impact their performance, durability and profitability. Therefore, it is critical to develop advanced materials that are corrosion resistant to ensure the efficiency and longevity of solar PV systems.
The selection of corrosion-resistant materials in solar cell design is crucial for mitigating corrosion-related issues. By choosing materials with high inherent corrosion resistance, the vulnerability of solar cell components to corrosion can be significantly reduced .
Crevice corrosion occurs in confined spaces or crevices between different components of the solar panel assembly. These crevices trap moisture and pollutants, creating localized environments conducive to corrosion. The interface between the solar cell and the encapsulant or the backsheet is a common location for crevice corrosion.
Dorcheh et al. studied the corrosion behavior of ferritic steel, austenitic steel and Inconel625 alloy in solar salt at 600 °C, drawing a conclusion that Inconel625 alloy owed the best corrosion resistance.
