According to reports, Germany was the first country to use transparent flat glass as a substrate for developing solar cells. German scientists installed these plate-shaped solar cells as window glass on buildings. They could directly supply the captured electrical energy to occupants and feed excess electricity into the grid.
This article explores the classification and applications of solar photovoltaic glass. Photovoltaic glass substrates used in solar cells typically include ultra-thin glass, surface-coated glass, and low-iron (extra-clear) glass.
Demonstrated flexible, Cd‐free Cu (In,Ga)Se₂ solar cells on emerging ultrathin glass substrates. Achieved a record efficiency of 17.81 % for flexible, Cd‐free Cu (In,Ga)Se₂ solar cells on ultrathin glass substrates. Achieved an efficiency of 10.11 % for 60 cm² large-area Cd-free CIGSe cells.
The new cell concept was introduced in the study “ High-efficiency cadmium-free Cu (In,Ga)Se 2 flexible thin-film solar cells on ultra-thin glass as an emerging substrate,” published in the Journal of Alloys and Compounds.
