While global demand for photovoltaic (PV) modules has increased
approximately 45 percent per year over the past decade, PV modules
must be durable and inexpensive to compete with traditional energy
resources. Often overlooked as a means to improve solar technology,
polymer packaging is not only the key to protecting fragile solar
cells from environmental factors, but is also the critical path for
increasing the power performance of a PV module Solar Module
Packaging: Polymeric Requirements and Selection explores current
and future opportunities in PV polymeric packaging, emphasizing how
it can simultaneously reduce cost, increase weatherability, and
improve a PV module's power. The book offers an insider's
perspective on the manufacturing processes and needs of the solar
industry and reveals opportunities for future material development
and processing. A broad survey of the polymeric packaging of solar
cells, the text covers various classifications of polymers, their
material properties, and optimal processing conditions. Taking a
practical approach to material selection, it emphasizes industrial
requirements for material development, such as cost reduction,
increased material durability, improved module performance, and
ease of processing. Addressing cost and profitability, the author
examines the economics behind polymeric packaging and how it
influences the selection process used by solar companies. Suitable
for nonspecialists in polymer science, the book provides a basic
understanding of polymeric concepts, fundamental properties, and
processing techniques commonly used in solar module packaging. It
presents guidelines for using polymers in commercial PV modules as
well as the tests required to establish confidence in the selection
process.
