In‐depth analysis of potential‐induced degradation in a commercial CIGS PV module
Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, 2023 AbstractA post‐mortem analysis is conducted after potential‐induced degradation (PID) of a commercial copper‐indium‐gallium‐selenide (CIGS) photovoltaic module. After PID, the conversion efficiency of the total module decreased by 62%. Electroluminescence images of the module show that the edges of the modules were much more affected by the PID than ...
