Enemies of photovoltaics - LeTID effect

We are back with our series Enemies of Photovoltaics, this time to tell you about LeTID, a fairly new phenomenon and therefore less investigated compared to other defects such as PID or LID. LeTID (Light and Elevated Temperature Induced Degradation) describes the loss of performance of photovoltaic modules under certain circumstances.

Enemies of photovoltaics - Delamination

In this installment we will go deeper into a serious defect that can be found in photovoltaic modules due to poor quality materials and/or handling: delamination.

Enemies of photovoltaics - LID effect

We continue to expand our series of articles on quality, enemies of photovoltaics. This time we want to talk about a phenomenon known and studied since the 70s, the LID (Light Induced Degradation) effect. This consists of a degradation of the photovoltaic modules due to chemical reactions in the silicon cell caused by the presence of impurities found in the materials used and their processing method during manufacturing.

Keys to ensure the quality and safety of modules

Photovoltaic modules have a service life of at least 25 years; they can even perform up to 50 years and more. In order for them to provide their services in conditions of maximum performance and operational safety, they must be manufactured with top quality materials, following a meticulous process.
