Double-Glass Solar Module | AE SOLAR | Polycrystalline Module
Double-Glass solar module of AE Solar with 60 cells and output power of 260 – 275 Watts in standard STC conditions. Ultra-thin thermally strengthened glass is used in this type of
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?
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.
Dual-glass type modules (also called double glass or glass-glass) are made up of two glass surfaces, on the front and on the rear with a thickness of 2.0 mm each. Some manufacturers, in order to reduce the weight of the modules, have opted for a thickness of 1.6 mm. Dualsun has chosen to stay with a thickness of 2.0 mm for reasons explained below.
Monocrystalline silicon and polycrystalline silicon are the primary types of double glass module photovoltaic glass, with monocrystalline silicon dominating the market due to its higher efficiency and lifespan. Key market players include Canadian Solar, Hanwha, Neosun Energy, Sharp, AE Solar, and Amerisolar.
