6 FAQs about Solar Price of lightweight crystalline silicon solar modules

How are lightweight solar cells with c-Si solar cells fabricated?

Lightweight solar cell modules with c-Si solar cells were fabricated using PET films. The fabricated modules have flexible properties. The lightweigh and flexible modules exhibit high reliability under both high temperature and high humidity conditions.

How to fabricate a lightweight solar cell module?

To fabricate a lightweight solar cell module, we used a 0.025 mm-thick PET film sheet as both a front-cover and a backsheet. The solar cells were encapsulated with EVA. As a reference sample, we fabricated solar cell modules with 3.2 mm-thick glass as the front-cover material.

Which c-Si solar cells have high conversion efficiency structures?

Many groups are developing c-Si solar cell with high conversion efficiency structures, including Si heterojunction solar cells, tunnel oxide passivated contact solar cells, and back contact solar cells [, , , , , , ].

What is a 156 mm2 c-Si solar cell?

We used commercially available 156 × 156 mm2 c-Si solar cells — specifically multi-crystalline Al back surface field (Al-BSF) structured solar cells — in each sample. The thickness of each c-Si solar cell, including the electrodes, was approximately 250 μm.

How much does a resale solar module cost?

For example, N-Type modules by REC listed for resale in May and July pushed up weighted average prices to $0.411 and $0.460 respectively. P-Type modules in September increased to $0.311 as modules by Sirius PV, Solar4America, and Panasonic were remarketed. The same price increase was present in P-Type Bifacials for the month of December.

What is the PV module price index?

The PV Module Price Index tracks wholesale pricing and supply of crystalline-silicon modules that have fallen out of traditional distribution channels, and as a result are listed for resale on the EnergyBin exchange.
