What is "flexible photovoltaic module"

 

With the increasing attention paid to renewable energy and environmental protection around the world, photovoltaic power generation technology has received more and more attention and support. Speaking of solar panels, the first thing that comes to mind is definitely the square solar panels that cannot be bent. Now the market is basically using this type of solar panels, but with the continuous improvement of photovoltaic power generation materials and production processes, the technology of photovoltaic solar panel components is also constantly innovating. Next, let me introduce you to another type of photovoltaic solar panel-flexible solar panel.

 

Flexible solar cells are a type of thin-film solar cells, which are ultra-light and ultra-thin, quick to install, highly safe, and durable. They are widely used in solar backpacks, solar convertibles, solar flashlights, solar cars, solar sailboats, and even solar airplanes. Another important application area of ​​flexible solar energy is BIPV (building integrated photovoltaic), which can be integrated into windows or roofs, exterior walls or interior walls.

 

The installation of traditional glass photovoltaic power generation systems has certain requirements for the bearing capacity of the roof. According to statistics, 40% of industrial and commercial plants in my country lack bearing capacity, which limits the further development of distributed photovoltaics, and flexible photovoltaic modules effectively solve this pain point.

 

Flexible photovoltaic modules can not only fit perfectly with the curved roof surface, but also do not require drilling during the installation process, which will not cause damage to the roof and will not affect the appearance design of the carport.

 

Installing photovoltaic power generation equipment on the glass roof can not only solve the problem of sunshade but also generate electricity to obtain income. However, traditional glass modules need to be drilled for installation, which will cause damage to the glass. Flexible photovoltaic modules are installed by pasting, without drilling, and will not cause damage to the glass. It is simple and safe!

 

For curved roofs with arcs, rigid traditional glass modules cannot provide an ideal solution for this type of roof, while flexible photovoltaic modules can fit perfectly with the roof surface. Pasting installation and construction are simple and fast!

 

The application scenarios of flexible panels are described above. Next, let's learn how to install them. The installation of traditional glass photovoltaic modules has certain requirements for the load capacity of the roof, and some old factories usually cannot meet the installation conditions. Flexible photovoltaic modules have extremely low load requirements for factories, and the wind resistance level can reach level 12.

 

The installation of flexible photovoltaic modules is very simple. You only need to clean the colored steel tiles on the roof, then use the special structural adhesive for photovoltaic modules to stick the flexible board to the roof, and then use a roller to compact the flexible board to complete the installation immediately. No holes need to be drilled and the original waterproof performance of the roof will not be damaged.
