Provides practical guidance on the latest quality assurance and
accelerated stress test methods for improved long-term performance
prediction of PV modules This book has been written from a
historical perspective to guide readers through how the PV industry
learned what the failure and degradation modes of PV modules were,
how accelerated tests were developed to cause the same failures and
degradations in the laboratory, and then how these tests were used
as tools to guide the design and fabrication of reliable and
long-life modules. Photovoltaic Module Reliability starts with a
brief history of photovoltaics, discussing some of the different
types of materials and devices used for commercial solar cells. It
then goes on to offer chapters on: Module Failure Modes;
Development of Accelerated Stress Tests; Qualification Testing; and
Failure Analysis Tools. Next, it examines the use of quality
management systems to manufacture PV modules. Subsequent chapters
cover the PVQAT Effort; the Conformity Assessment and IECRE; and
Predicting PV Module Service Life. The book finishes with a look at
what the future holds for PV. A comprehensive treatment of current
photovoltaic (PV) technology reliability and necessary improvement
to become a significant part of the electric utility supply system
Well documented with experimental and practical cases throughout,
enhancing relevance to both scientific community and industry
Timely contribution to the harmonization of methodological aspects
of PV reliability evaluation with test procedures implemented to
certify PV module quality Written by a leading international
authority in PV module reliability Photovoltaic Module Reliability
is an excellent book for anyone interested in PV module
reliability, including those working directly on PV module and
system reliability and preparing to purchase modules for
deployment.
