Importance of PV Module Packaging -- • High module reliability for 20-30 year service life • “Packaging is the predominant cause of failure in modules” – remark of a DOE SETP PV Program reviewer, 2006
Encapsulation is an effective and widely accepted tool for enhancing the operation stability of the PV cells, by preventing the weather-related (moisture, UV light, oxygen, and temperature) degradation and strengthening the mechanical toughness against external impacts .
The main barrier for the commercialization of this technology which is even estimated to contribute about 20% of the global energy supply by 2050 is the poor performance and stability of the PV modules in the outdoor climate.
During the long time operation at outdoor conditions, PV cells experience significant morphological and structural changes, optical absorption decay, and impairment of the optoelectronic properties, which adversely affect the performance of the PV module [7, 8].
The metallization can be accomplished through either thermal curing or firing. The electrochemical dye solar cell was invented in 1988 by Professor Graetzel of Lausanne Polytechnique, in Switzerland. The “Graetzel” dye cell uses dye molecules adsorbed onto the nanocrystalline oxide semiconductors such as TiO 2 to collect sunlight.
