What is a PERC PV module?

PERC PV modules are PV power generation devices encapsulated with PERC cells as the core components and are an integral part of solar power generation systems. They are composed of multiple solar cells, usually made of silicon, which convert sunlight into electricity through the PV effect. 

The back of traditional crystalline silicon solar cells is completely covered by metal electrodes, while PERC cells have been improved in terms of the back structure. By depositing a passivation layer and local metal contacts on the back of the silicon wafer, the recombination loss on the back of the cell is reduced, and the cell's absorption capacity for long-wave light is increased, thereby improving the cell's conversion efficiency, so that PERC PV modules can convert light energy into electricity more efficiently than traditional PV modules. 

Core Advantages of PERC PV Modules 

The following are the core advantages that make PERC PV modules stand out in the field of solar power generation. 

• Higher photoelectric conversion efficiency: PERC PV modules reduce the recombination loss of electrons and holes on the back of the cell by adding a passivation layer and local metal contacts on its back, and improve the absorption capacity for long-wave light, thereby improving the cell's conversion efficiency.

• Excellent weak light response performance: PERC PV modules can also work well and generate electricity in weak light environments (such as early morning, evening, cloudy days, etc.). The passivation structure on its back enables it to have better absorption and conversion capabilities for scattered light and low-intensity light. Compared with traditional PV modules, the power generation under weak light conditions has been significantly improved. This allows PERC PV modules to generate electricity for a longer time during the day, which can effectively increase the overall power generation.

• Good temperature coefficient characteristics: Temperature has a certain impact on the power generation efficiency of PV modules. PERC PV modules have relatively good temperature coefficient characteristics, that is to say, when the temperature rises, the decrease in their power generation efficiency is relatively small. In high temperature environments, PERC PV modules can maintain relatively stable power generation performance. Compared with some traditional PV modules, they can generate more electricity in hot areas or during high temperature periods in summer, ensuring the stability of power generation under different climatic conditions.

• Cost Reduction per Kilowatt-hour: Due to the high conversion efficiency of PERC PV modules, more electricity can be generated under the same installed capacity. This means that during the life cycle of the entire PV power station, its power generation increases, thereby reducing the cost per kilowatt-hour.

• Good compatibility and scalability: PERC PV technology can be combined with other advanced PV technologies (such as bifacial power generation technology, stacked cell technology, etc.) to further improve the performance and power generation capacity of PV modules.

• Strong adaptability to application scenarios: The above advantages of PERC PV modules enable them to adapt to a variety of different application scenarios. Whether in large-scale ground PV power stations, distributed PV power generation systems (such as industrial and commercial roofs, residential roofs), or PV applications in agriculture, transportation and other fields, PERC PV modules can provide reliable clean energy solutions for various scenarios with their efficient and stable power generation performance.
