Technical FAQs 4

Why should you extend the service life of PV modules?

Extending the service lifetime of PV modules stands at the forefront of sustainable energy solutions, offering a direct pathway to minimizing the environmental impacts of PV energy.

Does module service lifetime affect the sustainability of PV energy systems?

By doing so, this study aims to provide a comprehensive evaluation of the consequent reductions in environmental impacts, offering an important perspective on how module service lifetime can serve as a pivotal factor in the sustainability of PV energy systems.

How long does a PV module last?

Contemporary PV modules come with a 30-year service lifetime performance warranty. Reduced performance as a result of degradation and failure means reduced service lifetime, and thus, higher environmental burden when evaluating life cycle impacts per unit of electricity generated.

Are service lifetime and degradation models suitable for PV modules?

The latest scientific work shows that service lifetime and degradation models for PV modules are of specific use if they combine different modelling approaches and include know-how and modelling parameters of the most relevant degradation effects.
