How Do You Prevent Micro Cracks on Solar Panels? What Is The New Technology？
How do you prevent micro cracks on solar panels? What is the new technology？ In the production, transportation, and installation of solar panels, "micro cracks" have always been an unavoidable danger. However, for the PV Module manufacturing industry, compared with relying on remedial measures, the primary focus is on how to minimize the possibility of micro-cracks from the source. The ability to control the operating temperature of solar panels is considered a basic feature for most compliant products on the market. What is more innovative is the technological competition among manufacturers during the production process.

Losses! Layoffs! How Much Will The Reduction in Production of Silicon Wafers of Various Sizes Impact?
The industry-wide continuous decline in silicon wafer prices is akin to a dynamic tug-of-war between buyers and sellers. In fact, silicon wafer manufacturers of various sizes have basically entered a phase of cyclical losses. The loss in the N-type is relatively evident due to a significant excess capacity. According to an InfoLink survey, the inventory of silicon wafers in the industry has accumulated to approximately 3.3 to 3.5 billion pieces, with N-type M10 specifications being the majority.

Another Solar Power Plant Damaged by Hail! How Can Solar Panels Guarantee Product Quality in Response To Extreme Weather?
The lifespan of a solar power station is generally more than 25 years, and it is inevitable to encounter various extreme environments. How to ensure the continuous and stable power generation of solar modules should be everyone's biggest concern. In summary, qualified solar panel need to pass at least seven tests, including electrical performance testing, optical performance testing, mechanical performance testing, durability testing, temperature coefficient testing, reflectance testing, dimension and weight testing. Solar panels that pass these tests are considered to have a factory "passport", but to achieve superior performance, they also need to address tests such as temperature coefficient testing, dynamic mechanical load testing, lead testing, humidity resistance, and corrosion resistance testing, among others. The aforementioned hail load test belongs to a type of dynamic mechanical load testing.
