EPV Solar 4X and 5X Series Solar Modules
Thin-film modules, which include amorphous silicon (a-Si), copper indium gallium diselenide (CIGS), and cadmium telluride (Cd-Te), are made by coating entire sheets of substrate, generally glass or stainless steel, with micron-thin layers of semiconductor materials. This leads to a process that can be highly efficient in materials utilization, has relatively low labor requirements, and uses comparatively little energy. The a-Si process is especially efficient in costs and utilization of raw materials making it the lowest cost PV production technology currently available.
In addition to lower manufacturing costs thin-film products:
• have better temperature coefficients resulting in a greater percentage of rated power production at higher ambient temperatures • have minimal feedstock availability issues • do not experience broken connections due to inter-cell contact failure • produce more power on cloudy days in low light conditions • requires little or maintenance • can be grid connected or stand alone • distributed generation, point of use consumption • a-si modules produce more electricity per rated watt than single crystalline silicon by producing electricity in low light situations (i.e. early and late day, cloudy conditions) • Uniform dark color that is aesthetically appealing making them particularly attractive for applications with high visibility and especially ideal for awnings and facades.

White Paper: A-si Advantages

The ultimate goal of Aten Solar is to market PV modules that generate solar electricity at the lowest possible cost. While a-Si modules have an efficiency of 5-6%+ compared to c-Si's 10%+, thin-film modules are typically significantly more cost effective particularly in applications where area is not an issue. Their lower installed cost per watt, combined with favorable performance characteristics in many conditions, make thin-film modules the intelligent choice.
Thin-film solar panels consist of a sheet of glass or other material coated with a semiconductor in its gaseous form either, silicon, cadmium telluride or copper indium gallium selenide. They are thinner and more flexible than their crystalline silicon counterparts, which are made with wafers sliced from an ingot, a block of silicon made by melting and cooling silicon crystals.
Amorphous thin-film silicon has no crystalline structure at all and offers a great amount of flexibility in the production process. These PV modules are often produced using a vacuum deposition process. Here different layers of the PV cell are basically sprayed directly onto a substrate. This substrate can be of any shape or size and can be flexible since there are no crystals to break.
Benefits include:
-
No cell interconnect failures
-
Performs better than c-Si in higher temperatures (favorable temperature coefficients)
-
Uniform dark color that use aesthetically appealing, making them particularly attractive for applications with high visibility and especially ideal for BIPV (building integrated PV)
-
Modules are frameless, which eliminates the need for individual module grounding and alleviates rainwater "damming" and sediment build up.
-
More likely to continue producing electricity than C-Si should portion of the modules become covered by leaves, shade and debris. Delivers lowest cost per watt and $/kwh in the industry.
