Customer ServiceThe solar photovoltaic cell is responsible for converting solar energy into electrical energy and is a critical component of the solar energy system. The use of new materials improves the overall performance of the solar energy system and enables its application in new areas.
Aluminum, antimony, and lead are also used in solar photovoltaics to improve the energy bandgap. The improvement in the energy bandgap results from alloying silicon with aluminum, antimony, or lead and developing a multi-junction solar photovoltaic.
The first generation of solar photovoltaic modules was made from silicon with a crystalline structure, and silicon is still one of the widely used materials in solar photovoltaic technology. The research on silicon material is constantly growing, which is mainly focused on improving its efficiency and sustainability.
A solar cell is made from a thin wafer of silicon. Each cell is connected to the other cells in the module by thin wires known as busbars. Solar cells are the most expensive part of a solar panel. The quality of solar cells varies depending on the material it is made from. Silicon cells are generally more expensive than thin-film cells.
While most solar PV module companies are nothing more than assemblers of ready solar cells bought from various suppliers, some factories have at least however their own solar cell production line in which the raw material in form of silicon wafers is further processed and refined.
We look at the raw materials of a PV module including busbars, and junction boxes to the cell itself. A solar, or photovoltaic (PV) module as it is also called, is a device that converts sunlight into electricity. It is the key component of a solar energy system. Solar panels convert sunlight into direct current (DC) electricity.
