4 FAQs about Ultra-thin lightweight glass solar modules

Can flexible ultra-thin glass be used for CIGSe solar cells?

However, flexible ultra-thin glass (UTG) substrate, an emerging material used in the display and touch panel industry, holds immense promise for the future of photovoltaics. UTG offers distinct advantages, making it a more suitable candidate for high-efficiency CIGSe solar cells.

How efficient are CIGSe solar cells on ultrathin glass substrates?

Demonstrated flexible, Cd‐free Cu (In,Ga)Se₂ solar cells on emerging ultrathin glass substrates. Achieved a record efficiency of 17.81 % for flexible, Cd‐free Cu (In,Ga)Se₂ solar cells on ultrathin glass substrates. Achieved an efficiency of 10.11 % for 60 cm² large-area Cd-free CIGSe cells.

Is flexible ultra-thin glass the future of photovoltaics?

Alternative flexible substrates such as polyimide (PI) and stainless steel (SS) have demonstrated efficiencies of 22.2 % and 20.56 % , respectively. However, flexible ultra-thin glass (UTG) substrate, an emerging material used in the display and touch panel industry, holds immense promise for the future of photovoltaics.

What is ultra-thin glass (UTG)?

Cu (In,Ga)Se 2 (CIGSe) solar cells have significantly progressed in associated flexible photovoltaic technologies. Recently, ultra-thin glass (UTG) has been recognized as an emerging novel flexible substrate that is compatible with conventional thick glass-based methodology.
