Scientists at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands have designed a simplified optical filter for the passive thermal management of interdigitated back-contact (IBC) photovoltaic panels.

Field testing shows new Maxeon 7 IBC cells exhibit 70% lower average temperature rise in partial shading compared to competing technologies Maxeon IBC panels provide solar customers with safer, more ...

Maxeon said it has achieved a 24.9% efficiency rating for a full-scale Maxeon 7 solar panel using its IBC technology. The US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) confirmed the result. Singapore ...

Solar panels are an increasingly efficient, cost-effective, and higher-power-density renewable-energy source, though most ...
