What is a double glass solar panel?

Traditional solar panels typically feature a glass front and a polymer backsheet. In contrast, double glass modules replace the polymer layer with another glass sheet, creating a robust sandwich structure. At IBC SOLAR, we use 2,0 mm x 2,0 mm glass layers, whereas some other market offerings use thinner 1,6 mm x 1,6 mm layers.

Why are double glass solar panels bifacial?

Thermal stability: The identical thermal expansion coefficients of the glass layers minimize stress on solar cells during temperature fluctuations. Dual-sided energy Capture: Many double glass modules are bifacial, allowing them to harness sunlight from both sides.

What are the advantages of double glass solar panels?

Environmental shielding: Double glass modules provide excellent defense against moisture, corrosion, and UV radiation, reducing the risk of potential-induced degradation (PID). Thermal stability: The identical thermal expansion coefficients of the glass layers minimize stress on solar cells during temperature fluctuations.

Why do solar panels have two sheets of glass?

The combined strength of using two sheets of glass makes the solar panel less prone to becoming deformed or for microcracks to form in the cells. Installing dual-glass panels on a reflective surface, like a white rooftop, can increase solar energy production.
