Double glass PV module is known as the ultimate solution for the module encapsulation technique. Although double glass modules have many advantages, they are not yet widely used in photovoltaic power plants, for which one important reason is the large power loss due to the transmission of light in the cell gap region.
Perovskite-based PV glass, currently under development, shows potential for achieving higher conversion rates while reducing production costs. Dynamic electrochromic PV glass, which can adjust its transparency based on environmental conditions, represents another frontier in smart building technology.
The continued advancements in PV glass technology, such as improved efficiency, flexibility, and aesthetics, will further drive its adoption in the manufacturing sector. As PV glass becomes more cost-effective and easier to integrate, it will become a standard feature in new factory construction and retrofits.
