Technical FAQs 4

What is Photovoltaic Glass?

Photovoltaic glass is a special type of glass that utilizes solar radiation to generate electricity by laminating into solar cells, and has relevant current extraction devices and cables. The glass used in photovoltaic power generation is not ordinary glass, but TCO conductive glass.

Is glass a good choice for solar panels?

Glass is highly transparent and lets up to 99.95% of all light pass through it. 2 This means the large majority of the sunlight hitting the face of your panels will be transmitted to your solar cells for energy production. Glass varies in degrees of transparency, but most types of clear glass are suitable for PV panels.

Do solar panels absorb sunlight?

According to National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), solar cells can absorb up to 95% of direct sunlight passing through a glass cover. Solar panel technology has advanced with anti-reflective coatings. This makes it easier to charge through the glass. Solar panels use photovoltaic cells (PV) to convert light into an electrical current.

What are solar glass products?

Available with added functionalities, such as transparent conductive coatings or anti-reflective coatings, our solar glass products not only offer durable transparent protection to solar panels, but also become a functional component of solar modules.
