At present, crystalline silicon modules are less expensive than modules composed of other materials. The large production scale of silicon feedstock, wafers, cells, and modules is responsible for this cost advantage. NREL provides a summary of the production cost for the PV module in 2020 (Righini and Enrichi, 2020).
The hot spot risk of crystalline silicon modules is the only reliability and safety issue, which is attributed to cell properties. The increased hot spot risk results from local shunts or deformations of the pn-junction, which might origin from inhomogeneities in the raw material of the waver or bad cell processing. This paper presents an overview of existing and new approaches for the hot ...
