Overview of Field Experience - Degradation Rates & Lifetimes: NREL (National Renewable Energy Laboratory)

Research output: NRELPresentation

Abstract

The way a PV module fails may depend not only on its design and the materials used in its construction, but also on the weather it experiences, the way it is mounted, and the quality control during its manufacture. This presentation gives an overview of Field Experience - what degradation rates and what lifetimes are being observed in various regions.
