Full-Screen PV module by DAH Solar generates 11.5% more power

Full-Screen PV Module, a product innovated by DAH Solar, has been proved to generate 11.5% more power, according to an outdoor field test report published by TüV Nord. The product has received patents in 18 countries and regions.

The rooftops with small-angle installation conditions would form the bottom soiling due to rain wash and altitude intercept between the regular PV module frame and glass. This problem is the primary reason that causes shading problems and hotspots on commercial and residential PV systems.

Bottom soiling could form a shading belt in different widths. In some extreme conditions, the shading belt could completely cover the PV module, which will reduce power generation, harm generation capacity, and shorten the life span of the PV module.

The Full-Screen PV Module with a frameless front could allow the natural rainfalls wash away the dust. This design would avoid bottom soiling and minimize power losses induced by dust covering.

Field test by TüV Nord in Ningxia Province

The outdoor field test site for the Full-Screen PV Module is located in Xixia District, Ningxia Province (38°36’56.77” N,106°0’52.27” E). The demonstrative test was implemented by TüV Nord with its testing and demonstration platform. The test used 182mm-cell Full-Screen PV Module (DHT-M60X10/FS-460W) with frameless front A-side design, which was independently innovated by DAH Solar, and 182mm-cell regular PV modules (DHT-M60X10-460W).

To control variables, each module contains 6*30 cells, and the power is both 460W. All the modules used in the test are 182mm-cell mono PERC modules. The fixed installation angles for both types of modules are 5° (simulate the installation angles of color steel tile rooftop). The comparison groups used the same micro-inverters for MPPT tracking.

These two groups could showcase different power generation performances for two types of modules under natural conditions. Before the field test, the two groups were exposed to the sunlight 60Wh/m2 and tested the initial power generation.

Then the lab controlled the installation method, ground condition (soil, sand, rock, and grass), and the length of the PV cable.

The front irradiance is 170.28 kWh/m2 in April. DAH Solar’s Full-Screen PV module generated 73.21 kWh, and the cumulative power generation per watt is 161.17 Kwh/kW.

The regular PV module generated 65.06kWh, and the cumulative power generation per watt is 144.54kWh/kW. Compared to the regular PV module, the Full-Screen PV module increased the power generation by 11.5%. This field test shows that the Full-Screen PV module has advantages in avoiding bottom soiling and reducing dust covering.

Analysis of Power Response Characteristics of PV Modules in Different Temperature Ranges

The power responsiveness data of the two modules in each temperature range indicated that in each operating temperature range, the performance of the Full-Screen PV module per watt (performance per watt = average power ÷ measured power) is better than that of the regular PV module. As the height increases, the difference in power response characteristics between the Full-Screen PV Module and the regular PV module is proportionally increasing.

Analysis of PV Modules Strong and Low Light Response Characteristics

In order to research the power generation performance of the 2 types of module under various irradiation values. TÜV NORD compared the power response characteristics of the 2 types of module in each irradiation range. The result showcase that the Full-Screen PV Modules’performance is better than the regular PV modules in each irradiation range. As the irradiation value increases, the difference in power response characteristics between the Full-Screen PV Modules and the regular PV modules also increases proportionally.
