Challenges and advantages of cut solar cells for shingling and half-cell modules

EPJ Photovoltaics
Cutting silicon solar cells from their host wafer into smaller cells reduces the output current per cut cell and therefore allows for reduced ohmic losses in series interconnection at module level.

Advanced Flame Retardant Strategies and Fire Performance Assessment for Safer Photovoltaics in Buildings: A Two‐Part Review

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The integration of photovoltaic (PV) systems into building structures introduces distinct fire risks with critical implications for occupant safety. This review examines the key fire hazards associated with PV implementation and explores mitigation strategies, including flame‐retardant additives.

Agrivoltaics in Germany - Status Quo and Future Developments

AgriVoltaics Conference Proceedings
Ground-mounted photovoltaic facilities in open spaces have been common in Germany for many years. However, according to the legislation, these are only supported by the government on poorer quality soils, former military training areas, or along traffic

High‐Concentration Mesogen‐Assisted Exfoliation of Low‐Dimensional Nanomaterials for Achieving Ultralow‐Temperature Actuations of Liquid Crystal Elastomers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Most matter is nominally frozen in the polar regions or space, and liquid crystal materials are no exception. Consequently, soft actuators, including liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs), are inoperative under such extreme cold in response to stimuli, as their motion relies on mechanical deformation.

Composites of Shellac and Silver Nanowires as Flexible, Biobased, and Corrosion‐Resistant Transparent Conductive Electrodes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Shellac, a centuries‐old natural resin, is reimagined as a green material for flexible electronics. When combined with silver nanowires, shellac films deliver transparency, conductivity, and stability against humidity. These results position shellac as a sustainable alternative to synthetic polymers for transparent conductors in next‐generation ...

Towards crack free fabrication of interconnect shingled solar modules through wire length and wire-end geometry control

EPJ Photovoltaics
Reduction or elimination of cell-to-cell distance in a solar panel is a straightforward way to enhance solar module efficiency. Overlapping interconnection by wire shingling increases the active area in solar modules and allows to apply mainstream ...
