Estonian independent power producer (IPP) Sunly has secured a €62 million (US$68 million) loan to build and operate a 244MW solar PV plant in Estonia. Construction of the Risti solar park started in November 2024 and the company expects the project to be operational by 2027. [pdf]
Tempered glass can withstand greater impact of natural forces such as wind pressure, sand, hail, and large temperature difference between day and night, thereby effectively protecting solar cells from damage. [pdf]
Bifacial G-B modules use a 3.2 mm-thick tempered glass on the front, delivering superior impact strength and durability in comparison to the 2 mm–2.1 mm thick heat-treated glass typically used in G-G modules. [pdf]
[FAQS about British double-glass photovoltaic module glass]
Many current module types show high degradation of up to 10% after 60 kWh/m2 UV dose in lab tests. IEC61215 tests does not test for new embedment material degradation. Additional test are needed. Thin glass breakage and cold solder joints are critical current failure types. [pdf]
