What is a double glass (Dual Glass) solar panel?

A double glass (Dual Glass) solar panel is a glass-glass module structure where a glass layer is used on the back of the modules instead of the traditional polymer backsheet. Double glass solar panels were originally heavy and expensive, but the lighter polymer backing panels gained most of the market share.

What is a dual glass module?

Our dual glass modules use the same internal circuit connection as a traditional glass-backsheet module but feature heat-strengthened glass on both sides. We produce the back glass with a unique drilling technique that ensures the reliability of both the junction box installation and the module.

What are the benefits of double glazed solar panels?

Double-glazed solar panels, also known as dual glass solar panels, offer increased reliability, especially for large-scale photovoltaic projects. They provide better resistance to higher temperatures, humidity, and UV conditions and have better mechanical stability, which reduces the risk of microcracks during installation and operation.

Why should you choose glass in a PV module?

The choice of glass in a PV module has become a key consideration in efforts to improve durability in the face of extreme weather conditions.

Does Trina Solar have a dual glass bifacial module?

However, Trina Solar has made such a breakthrough by abandoning the backsheet and developing the brand-new dual glass module. Trina Solar Vertex TSM-DEG21C.20 (670 W) framed dual-glass bifacial module

Is double glass a good choice for a PV farm?

Regarding the moisture issue, the main argument against double glass modules is addressed by the use of polyolefins as encapsulating substances. The problem is further solved by the execution, as confirmed by e.g. PVEL tests.
