Emerging fix for LID in multi PERC

Cell technology: PERC is nothing new, but a full understanding of the defects behind the “nasty” light-induced degradation in multicrystalline cells is. Researchers from the University of New South Wales claim to have made significant progress in both identifying, testing for, and mitigating these defects, in a development that may turn the multi versus mono competitive dynamic once more on its head.

In the never-ending competitive race between mono and multicrystalline PV technology, mono appears to be making up ground on its lower-cost rival, and fast. At this year’s SNEC conference, the mono versus multi competitive dynamic was very much front and center in discussions. While various manufacturers and researchers at the conference introduced arguments for both …
