Performance Modelling and Yearlong Outdoor Degradation Analysis of a GaAs//Si Tandem Module

Silicon-based tandem photovoltaic cells and modules are forecasted to enter mass production around the year 2026. Previous research efforts on tandem photovoltaic technology have focused heavily on increasing cell efficiencies. However, for successful large-scale deployment of tandem modules, reliability and long-term durability will be equally important. Outdoor performance data beyond the one-year mark enable sophisticated degradation analysis and help build confidence in the reliability and durability of this new technology.

Abstract

Silicon-based tandem photovoltaic cells and modules are forecasted to enter mass production around the year 2026. Previous research efforts on tandem photovoltaic technology have focused heavily on increasing cell efficiencies. However, for successful large-scale deployment of tandem modules, reliability and long-term durability will be equally important. Outdoor performance data beyond the one-year mark enable sophisticated degradation analysis and help build confidence in the reliability and durability of this new technology.
