Solar glass panels: A review

Abstract

The need for energy sources in the world is gradually increasing day by day. Photovoltaics (PVs) usage has worldwidely spread thanks to the efficiency and reliability increase and price dcrease of solar panels. The photovoltaic (PV) glazing technique is a preferred method in modern architecture because of its aesthetic properties besides generating electricity. Traditional PV glazing systems are mostly produced from crystalline silicon solar cells (c–SiPVs). The development of low–cost PV cells for the production of cost–effective and energy–saving glass systems has been of great interest. Solar control glass which is one of the crucial components of PV panels is largely employed for architectural and automotive windows to lower the sunlight and heat inlet for the comfort. Hereby a general overview of solar glass panels is presented.

Cam Güneş Panelleri: Bir Derleme

Öz

Dünyada enerjiye olan ihtiyaç günden güne artmaktadır. Verimlilik ve güvenilirliklerindeki artış ve fiyatlarındaki düşüş sayesinde güneş panellerinin (fotovoltaiklerin) kullanımı da dünya genelinde yaygınlaşmaktadır. Modern mimaride güneş paneli estetik özellikleri ve elektrik üretimi açısından tercih edilmektedir. Geleneksel güneş paneli sistemleri ağırlıklı olarak kristalin silisyum güneş hücrelerinden (c–SiPVs) üretilmektedir. Düşük fiyatlı güneş paneli hücreleri fiyat etkin ve enerji tasarruflu cam sistemlerinin üretimi bağlamında büyük ilgi çekmektedir. Güneş panellerinin önemli bileşenlerinden birisi olan güneş control camı iç mekana giren gün ışığını ve ısısını azaltması böylece yaşam konforu sağlaması ile mimaride ve otomotiv pencerelerinde yaygın olarak kullanımaktadır. Bu makalede cam güneş panelleri hakkında genel bir derleme çalışması sunulmaktadır.
