Improving Industry Standards For PV Module Testing

DuPont is helping lead the industry call to adopt new standards for PV module testing to help reduce solar panel degradation and backsheet failures.

 
 
 
 
 
 

The global demand for solar energy is surging, and to keep up with growth, the reliability of PV module installations must be preserved. Unfortunately, defects of solar panels in the field, stemming from the use of non field-proven materials, are not uncommon, even among systems in use less than five years.
