It is used for a wide range of applications across the entire manufacturing chain from bricks and ingots to modules. However, common PL imaging systems have three main limitations: (a) Due to the uniform illumination, the acquired images are affected by lateral carrier flow, resulting in image blurring; (b) sample's nonuniformity is measured at different injection levels; and (c) images are taken at room temperatures, although there is valuable information in temperature-dependent measurements. In this paper we present a novel temperature-dependent PL imaging system that is not affected by lateral balancing currents. By adaptively adjusting the light intensity at each pixel, we set a uniform excess carrier density across the sample. Hence, the lateral currents are eliminated. The non-uniformity of the material's electrical properties and temperature characteristics can then be extracted from the excitation image. The advantages of the proposed system are demonstrated using mono and multicrystalline silicon wafers. This novel approach presents a significant improvement in accuracy and resolution compared to conventional PL imaging techniques and is therefore, expected to be beneficial for any PL-based quantitative analysis.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"37 1","pages":"0789-0792"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84777086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In monofacial modules, these mirrors offer >1.2% increase in energy yield compared to single-layer anti-reflection coatings, while cooling by over 1K on average.

Published literature suggests incorporation of chlorine at Te site (ClTe) in CdTe grain boundaries. Density Functional Theory was therefore used to identify the mechanisms responsible for enhancing CdTe device performance after CdCl2 treatment. The computational model explains the formation of local p-n-p junctions through field effect passivation after inclusion of ClTe, which significantly improves CdTe device performance by mitigating recombination at the interface.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"125 1","pages":"1760-1764"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88703089","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the validation of accelerated testing to reproduce field failure has remained elusive. The recent developments of more advanced stress testing protocols utilizing sequential and combined stressors have provided another opportunity for validation. Using a suite of mechanical, chemical, and structural characterization methods we report the development of our approach using a known bad backsheet “AAA.” We then apply this approach to PVDF-based backsheets to further confirm the generalizability of this approach. The outcome of this work is two-fold: (1) validation of advanced accelerated testing protocols which will enable the prediction of field failures in new materials, and (2) deeper insights into the degradation mechanisms observed through the extensive characterization allowing for improved materials engineering and development.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"8 1","pages":"1871-1872"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84693891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While the specific CO2-emission is decreasing then – due to the increased share of Renewables, the grid frequency should be increasing (to a certain limit). Using the grid frequency as an indicator to switch–on and –off certain loads (loads that do not require power permanently (e.g. dishwashers, washing machines, dryers, fridges and freezers, heaters) could provide a simple, inexpensive demand-side-management indicator to lower specific CO2-emssions and costs (if a dynamic consumption tariff is applied). To check the truthfulness of that hypothesis, the grid and frequency data of the German grid of the year 2018 have been collected and the correlations between grid frequency, share of renewables, CO2-contents, and actual price at the European energy exchange (EEX) have been calculated. The results show: Correlation between grid frequency and the share of renewables is quite low ($r=0.155$) due to the fact that primary grid control quickly compensates deviations from the 50 Hz nominal frequency. As expected, there is a good anti–correlation $(r=-0.687)$ between the EEX–prices and the share of renewables in the grid. Over the years, correlation between electricity trading prices (EEX) and CO2 emissions is quite good ($r=0.665$), within the one year (2018) that correlation almost doesn't exist, possibly due to the inflexibility of the bulky lignite baseload power plants that even operate at negative prices.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"5 1","pages":"1672-1674"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84815633","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here we report the effects of positive bias. Modules under positive bias demonstrated a significant photocurrent loss caused by two routes. First, delamination and discoloration of the silicon nitride layer, leading to optical loss determined by reflectance measurements. Second, chemical discoloration of the cell gridlines and encapsulant (EVA), which is linked to an electrochemical reaction at the silver electrodes. Chemical compositional analysis using X-ray photoemission spectroscopy demonstrated that the discoloration is attributed to Ag2S and/or Ag2O. Evidence of Ag ion migration from the cell grid into the encapsulant is observed after shallow depth profiling on the EVA surface. However, Ag was not detected at the EVA/glass interface, inferring limited Ag ion transport through the EVA. The source of sulfur is believed to be ambient air, which diffused into the module through the breathable backsheet.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"15 10 1","pages":"1985-1986"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86660620","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lengths of a sunny day, appearance/ disappearance of sun in clouds, changing speed and direction of wind complicate significantly the control of load stability in the grid. In current study, we describe a mini scale, I kW system comprising of solar panels and wind turbine. The uniqueness of our design consists of solar panels equipped with capability of tracking/ anti-tracking the position and the amount of energy coming from the sun, our system will increase the duration of the sunny day by 30% regardless of geographical location. On MWatt commercial wind turbines, tracking/anti-tracking could be done by changing angle of attack of blades. The most important factor in our design is programmable control algorithm synchronizing simultaneous production of energy by both components of the system especially during extremely windy conditions. The major commands for control of the combined clean energy system would be provided by the operator of the grid system.
