Differences between light-transmitting modules and double-glass modules
📌

What is a dual glass module?

Our dual glass modules use the same internal circuit connection as a traditional glass-backsheet module but feature heat-strengthened glass on both sides. We produce the back glass with a unique drilling technique that ensures the reliability of both the junction box installation and the module.

📌

Why are double glass modules symmetrical?

Mechanical constraints on cells: the fact that the structure of the double glass modules is symmetrical implies that the cells are located on a so-called neutral line, the upper part of the module being in compression during a downward mechanical load and the lower glass surface being in tension.

📌

What is the bifaciality of a double glass module?

Bifaciality: The bifaciality of double glass modules produces a gain of around 10-11% compared to the power measured on the front panel alone, for TOPCon type modules under so-called BNPI (bifacial nameplate irradiance) test conditions.

📌

What is the difference between glass-transparent backsheet and dual glass?

Along with the size increase, the module weight is also increasing. Compared with dual glass, the transparent backsheet can successfully decrease module weight and the difference between the glass-transparent backsheet module and the dual glass alternative increases with the growing module size.

📌

What is the thickness of a glass module?

The thickness of the front glass generally used for this type of structure is 3.2 mm. Dual-glass type modules (also called double glass or glass-glass) are made up of two glass surfaces, on the front and on the rear with a thickness of 2.0 mm each.

📌

Are glass-glass modules frameless?

Glass-glass modules can also be frameless, which helps eliminate the cost of an extruded aluminum frame. However, glass-glass models with frames have a lower risk of breakage. As a result, most glass-glass modules come with frames in place. Compared with standard glass backsheet technology, framed modules with two layers of glass are heavier.

📌

What are the differences between single-glass and

The benefits of replacing the opaque backsheet with glass outweigh its disadvantages: For a conventional solar panel, when the snow gets thick or people step on it (during installation), the solar cells will bend significantly,
