How PV modules are treated at the end of their life is an increasingly important issue, but some recycling practices leave a lot to be desired. Scott Azevedo from Intertek CEA explores how asking the ...

Researchers from the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay have analyzed the techno-economic viability of improving photovoltaic (PV) plants with degraded modules by reconfiguring them. The team ...

Researchers had placed a cotton sheet on the back of a PV module, which was then made wet and cooled. On the front side, water was pumped water from a pipe in a way that kept the panel both cool and ...

Photovoltaic modules are central to the transition towards sustainable energy systems, yet their long‐term efficiency is subject to both inherent material limitations and external environmental ...

Dust accumulation has long constrained the power generation efficiency and operational benefits of photovoltaic modules - especially in desert, dust-heavy regions. Dirt points such as dust adhesion, ...
