Preface To further extend the s rvice life of photovoltaic modules, double glass photovoltaic module has cently been develop d and st died in the PV community. Double lass module contains two sheets of glass, whereby the back sheet is made of heat strengthened (semi-tempered) glass to substitute the traditional polymer backsheet.
During the day time when there is solar radiation, the single glass part has higher temperature values than the double glass and PV module parts due to the higher transmissivity character of the single glass. Fig. 12. The hourly experimental outlet air temperature changes of the PV module, double glass and single glass parts.
However, double glass panels hold the edge in durability, lasting longer and experiencing less performance degradation over time. Budget plays a big role in any decision. Single glass panels are the clear winner here, costing 5-15% less than their double-glazed counterparts. But remember, the initial cost isn’t the whole story.
