Field Reliability of Glass/Glass Modules
A review of literature indicates that there will be a 20% increase in utilization of glass/glass PV modules by 2023. Common degradation modes reported in literature of glass/glass modules are: Encapsulant delamination, Encapsulant browning, corrosion and glass cracks. There is a strong need to investigate the reliability of glass/glass modules in detail to identify and overcome any potential failures in the future constructions. This work presents a preliminary literature review on the reliability of old generation glass/glass modules in the field.
