In this work, LTSWI module samples were characterized for material properties and assembly dimensions and subjected to accelerated aging experiments to induce degradation. A finite element analysis model was developed based on characterization results, to analyze internal stressors during environmental exposures. The polymer foil contains polyethylene terephthalate and low-density polyethylene layers, and solder composition was tin bismuth, which notably was not metallurgically bonded to cell gridlines. High temperature accelerated exposures created power loss up to 9% in minimodule samples, with fill factor losses implicating contact degradation. Posttest characterization identified solder-gridline cracking and wire-cell separation as contributing mechanisms. Finite element modeling demonstrated that wire-to-cell contact is maintained by polymer contraction post lamination but is reversible, resulting in contact loss and wire separation during high temperature exposure. Simulations also detected in-plane wire-to-cell displacements, driven by surrounding polymer motion in response to high temperatures and mechanical load. We hypothesize that the propensity for wire movement during environmental exposure damages the not-metallurgically bonded wire-gridline interface and contributes to LTSWI contact degradation. Because distinct from thermal expansion mismatches which damage traditionally soldered modules, current test protocols are likely not applying the intended acceleration factors to LTSWI modules. This work highlights how construction-specific accelerated testing may be needed for nontraditional module designs and provides a starting point for accurate LTSWI life assessment.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":223,"journal":{"name":"Progress in Photovoltaics","volume":"33 10","pages":"1139-1153"},"PeriodicalIF":7.6,"publicationDate":"2025-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145181503","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In contrast to the nominal output power, which is related to the standard test conditions (STC), the energy rating considers the interaction of the PV module characteristics with the reference climate conditions. The following PV module parameters affect the amount of produced energy: (a) temperature behaviour, (b) low irradiance behaviour, (c) spectral responsivity and (d) angular responsivity. To compare the energy yield performances of PV modules, the standard series IEC 61853 defines a specific metric, which describes the energy yield performance of a PV module by a single parameter, the Climate Specific Energy Rating (CSER). Whereas recent studies have focused on the harmonization of CSER calculation methods, our study provides a methodology for the calculation of the expanded CSER uncertainty (<i>k</i> = 2). As inputs, we use the measurement uncertainties of PV module parameters, stated by TÜV Rheinland test laboratory. For the six tabulated reference climates of IEC 61853, our work has shown that a CSER uncertainty in the range of ±2%–±2.3% can be achieved. The main contribution in the range of 80% is related to the uncertainties of output power measurements with solar simulators under variable module temperatures and irradiances (<i>G</i>–<i>T</i> matrix). The following are the uncertainties associated with PV module temperature calculation and the measurement uncertainty of the angular response curve.

III-V Multijunction solar cells with more than four junctions require an inverted top subcell with specific bandgap wider than 2.1 eV to absorb the short-wavelength photons (&lt; 600 nm) effectively. (Al<sub>x</sub>Ga<sub>1-x</sub>)<sub>0.5</sub>In<sub>0.5</sub>P alloy lattice-matched to GaAs substrate, with x ≥ 0.31, is usually preferred. However, it has been a challenge to achieve high performance inverted 2.1 eV AlGaInP homojunction solar cells for the severe decrease of short-wavelength (especially for wavelength &lt; 450 nm) quantum efficiency. Thus, until now, a compromise structure replacing the n-type emitter with a narrow bandgap material (for instance, 1.91 eV GaInP), which is called the heterojunction solar cell, is widely employed. However, this structure would decrease the open-voltage for increasing energy loss of short-wavelength photons and limit the multijunction device efficiency. Here, we investigate the underlying mechanisms besides those commonly known results and present arguments that two new mechanisms should be attributed to the degradation of short-wavelength quantum efficiency: (1) bulk AlGaInP quality degradation resulting from the underneath AlInP window surface morphology and (2) additional optical absorption of the intermediate layers formed by III-V atom intermixing. Based on these findings, an interface Induced lifetime decrease model, and an intermixing layer model are introduced into the numerical simulations to time-resolved photoluminescence and internal quantum efficiency, achieving nice agreement between measured and modelled data with reasonable input parameters. Consequently, two strategies, 1) thermal treatment for AlInP layers and 2) minor compressive strain in P—containing materials, are suggested not only for the inverted 2.1 eV AlGaInP homojunction solar cells but also for the inverted 2.1 eV/1.7 eV/1.4 eV triple-junction solar cell. The subcells with these two strategies show higher quantum efficiency than the normal ones despite the bandgaps changing from 2.12 eV to 2.15 eV (e.g., IQE@400 nm increases from 69% to 76%). Meanwhile, the fill factor of inverted triple junction solar cells is slightly enhanced from 0.85 to 0.87. This improved triple junction solar cell is bonded with a 1.1 eV/0.83 eV dual-junction solar cell to form a five-junction solar cell, achieving an outstanding one-sun AM0 efficiency of 36.06% (Voc:4.904 V, Jsc:11.51 mA/cm<sup>2</sup>, FF:0.8645).

Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, due to their distributed nature, present an opportunity to create such communities. At Aarhus University (Denmark), we have established an energy community consisting of a 98-kW rooftop solar PV installation, crowdsourced by students, and employees of the university. The participants can buy one or several shares of the installation (which is divided into 900 shares), the electricity is consumed by the university, and the shareowners receive some economic compensation every year. The road to establishing this energy community has been rough, and we have gathered many lessons. In this manuscript, we present the 10 largest challenges which might arise when setting up a university energy community and our particular approach to facing them. Sharing these learnings might pave the way for those willing to establish their own energy community.
