Outdoor Monitoring, Degradation Rate Estimation, and Failure Mode Analysis of Thin Film Amorphous Silicon Solar Cells
Insights into Soiling, Durability, and Reliability
The global shift towards low-carbon and renewable energy sources, driven by climate concerns associated with fossil fuels, has positioned solar photovoltaics (PV) as a major alternative. With the increasing adoption of PV technologies, it is crucial to study various PV module typ
...
This thesis investigates the formation of hotspots in single junction amorphous silicon thin film solar modules through experimental methods. Employing electroluminescence (EL) imaging and infrared (IR) imaging, the study aims at identifying and classifying defects that can be us

Hotspot Endurance Testing of Thin Amorphous Silicon Solar Foils
The importance of reliability
Thin-film amorphous Silicon (a-Si) technology has been up and coming in recent years in order to achieve an efficiency comparable to crystalline Silicon (c-Si). Although the technology has existed for quite some time, it has not been researched as much as its crystalline counterp
