We begin with a discussion of glass requirements, specifically composition, that enable increased solar energy transmission, which is critical for solar applications. Next we discuss anti-reflective surface treatments of glass for further enhancement of solar energy transmission, primarily for crystalline silicon photovoltaics.
Advances in glass compositions, including rare-earth doping and low-melting-point oxides, further optimize photon absorption and conversion processes. In addition, luminescent solar concentrators, down-shifting, downconversion, and upconversion mechanisms tailor the solar spectrum for improved compatibility with silicon-based solar cells.
The successful application of cost-effective technologies for harvesting of solar energy remains a challenge for research and industry. Glass is an essential element of the mirrors used in concentrated solar power (CSP) applications, where such mirrors reflect incident solar light and concentrate it onto a target.
However, with the discovery of semiconductor materials and thin-film deposition processes, glass has become a technology platform for advanced energy management and energy generation applications. This is due to its ability to provide mechanical strength, chemical durability, and high transmission in the solar spectrum.
Our standardized photovoltaic power generation and energy storage products are engineered for reliability, safety, and efficient deployment. All systems include comprehensive monitoring and control systems with remote management capabilities.
