Glass makes 67%–76% of the total solar panel weight. There is a growing concern about the industrial impact of glass production, which includes significant energy inputs and emissions of about 60 million tons of CO 2 equivalent per year .
Silicon-based photovoltaic panels (PV) are already responsible for about 3% of electricity produced annually worldwide, and this share is expected to grow significantly in the following decades , .
Discussion Glass is undoubtedly an essential part of PV devices, and there is room for glass-related breakthroughs that could result in expanded net energy production of silicon based solar electricity. There is the possibility to develop CGs with reduced energy intensity and the need to reduce emissions from the flat glass production process.
Silicon is an abundant mineral, and some authors have demonstrated its deployment using a silica gel as a host, which could be a path to improve the efficiency of solar panels on-field. 3.3.3. A benchmark framework for spectral converters To the best of our knowledge, there is no standardized test to measure the performance of SCs.
