In 2024, researchers at Fraunhofer ISE analyzed the stability of TOPCon, passivated emitter and rear cell (PERC), and heterojunction solar cells under UV irradiation and found that all three cell ...

Trina is now the most popular brand of PV module in Europe, according to sun.store. Image: Trina Storage. In Europe, PV panel prices fell marginally between May and June, leading to a slight downturn ...

The US solar manufacturing industry just hit a historic milestone: Domestic solar module production capacity has surpassed 50 gigawatts (GW). If all these factories ran at full capacity, they could ...

Fraunhofer’s research studied the relative power loss of various commercial module types after UV testing. Lines of the same colour represent tests on the same module types. The modules were measured ...

UNSW researchers have investigated the impact of two types of soldering fluxes on TOPCon solar modules under damp heat conditions and have found that “no-clean” soldering fluxes can cause severe ...
