Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a solar cell module and a method for manufacturing the same. Background Art
[0002] Photovoltaic power generation is a technology that directly converts light energy into electrical energy by utilizing the photovoltaic effect at the semiconductor interface. It mainly consists of three major parts: solar cell modules (also known as photovoltaic modules), controllers, and inverters. Photovoltaic power generation has the advantages of being safe and reliable, noise-free, pollution-free, not being restricted by the geographical distribution of resources, high energy quality, and short time for obtaining energy. However, the price of realizing solar power generation is basically the same as that of traditional fossil energy. Truly achieving grid parity for photovoltaic power generation has become an urgent problem to be solved in the current photovoltaic commercialization process. Effectively reducing the cost of the photovoltaic system and improving the power generation efficiency will still be the core issues in the future development of the photovoltaic industry.
[0003] As the system voltage increases to 2000V (2000V high-voltage-resistant components and supporting electrical equipment mean lower system costs and higher power generation efficiency. Therefore, the 2000V system voltage will become a new technological trend), at this time, the PID (Potential Induced Degradation) effect that the photovoltaic module has to face will become more serious. Since the PID effect is ultimately reflected in the output power attenuation of the solar cell module, how to design a solar cell module that can meet the PID requirements (IEC TS 62804-1: 2015: 85°C / RH85%, 96 hours, maximum system voltage 2000V, PID ≤ 5%) when working for a long time at 2000V system voltage is an urgent problem to be solved at present.

[0052] In the following description and the appended claims, the PID (Potential Induced Degradation) effect is manifested as a leakage current formed between the glass and the encapsulation material when the solar cell module (photovoltaic module) is under high voltage for a long time, which causes a large amount of charges to accumulate on the surface of the solar cell, damaging the passivation effect on the surface of the solar cell, and thus resulting in a phenomenon that the output power of the solar cell module decays by more than 30%. This effect is extremely likely to occur in high-temperature and humid application environments, seriously affecting the power generation and safety of the solar cell module.
[0053] The existing method is to directly coat a hydrophobic film layer on the entire glass surface. Although the hydrophobic function of the hydrophobic film layer can, to a certain extent, reduce the PID effect of the solar cell module in a high-voltage system, the reduction amplitude is not obvious. Especially for the solar cell module applied in a high-voltage system, the PID effect is still relatively high. At the same time, coating the hydrophobic film layer on the entire glass surface results in a relatively low output power of the solar cell module.
[0054] To solve the problem in the prior art that the PID effect of the solar cell module in a high-voltage system is relatively high, resulting in a relatively low output power of the solar cell module, the method for preparing a solar cell module provided by an embodiment of the present invention sets a compression-resistant, moisture-resistant and insulating film on the glass. Among them, the covering length of the compression-resistant, moisture-resistant and insulating film on the second main surface of the glass is greater than the covering length of the frame on the second main surface of the glass, and the compression-resistant, moisture-resistant and insulating film does not cover the entire second main surface of the glass. The high-voltage resistance performance of the insulating film enables the solar cell module to be applicable to a high-voltage system, improving the power generation efficiency of the solar cell module. The moisture-resistant function of the insulating film reduces the PID effect of the solar cell module in a high-voltage system, improving the output power of the solar cell module. At the same time, since the insulating film does not completely cover the entire second main surface of the glass, it will not affect the light transmission through the glass, nor will it affect the absorption of light by the battery chip, and thus will not affect the power of the solar cell module. In addition, the preparation process of the solar cell module provided by the embodiment of the present invention is simple, improving the preparation efficiency of the solar cell module and achieving the effects of reducing the process manufacturing difficulty and preparation cost.
[0055] Specifically, to solve the above problems and achieve the above effects, an embodiment of the present invention provides a solar cell module. Figures 1 - 3 A cross-sectional schematic diagram of the solar cell module is shown; Figure 4 A top view of the solar cell module is shown. As Figure 1 shown, the solar cell module mainly includes: a laminate, and a frame 40 disposed on the side of the laminate;
[0056] The laminate includes a glass 10,
[0057] a packaging film 20 and a battery cell 30 disposed on the first main surface of the glass 10,
[0058] and a compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 disposed on the second main surface of the glass 10 away from the battery cell 30 and the side of the glass 10 close to the frame 40.
[0059] Wherein, the compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 can prevent cations from flowing into the battery cell 30.
[0060] When the solar cell module is under a negative bias voltage, leakage current anode ions (generally Na + ) flow into the battery cell, reducing the parallel resistance of the battery, Figure 5 The basic structure of the double-glass solar cell module and the ion transport path model causing the PID effect are shown. As Figure 5 shown, cations can accumulate on the surface of the battery cell 30 through the illustrated leakage current path (path 70 indicated by the black arrow) (the cations mainly accumulate on the surface of the battery cell 30 from the second main surface of the glass 10 and the edge on the side close to the frame 40), resulting in a higher PID effect. In order to reduce the PID effect of the solar cell module in a high-voltage system, the PID effect can be effectively reduced by cutting off the path for cations to transport to the surface of the solar cell 30, thereby improving the output efficiency of the solar cell. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, a compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 is disposed on the second main surface of the glass 10 and the side close to the frame to prevent cations from flowing into the battery cell 30.
[0061] The glass used in the solar cell module is usually a cuboid with a relatively thin thickness, including a first main surface and a second main surface disposed opposite to each other, and four side surfaces located between the two main surfaces; usually, frames are installed on all four side surfaces of the glass, and there are also cases where frames are installed on only two or three side surfaces. In the embodiment of the present invention, a compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 is disposed on the side surface of the glass where the frame 40 is installed. The side surface without the installed frame can be provided with the compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 or not.
[0062] The covering length of the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 on the second main surface of the glass 10 is greater than the covering length of the frame 40 on the second main surface of the glass 10, and the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 does not cover the entire second main surface of the glass 10. Specifically, as Figure 8 shown, the covering length L of the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 on the second main surface of the glass 10 is greater than the covering length D of the frame 40 on the second main surface of the glass 10. Through the above settings, the moisture-blocking effect in the frame encapsulation area is ensured, thereby reducing the PID effect of the solar cell module in a high-humidity environment.
[0063] Through research, it is found that the cations (generally Na + ) that cause the PID effect of the solar cell module mainly flow into the solar cell from the frame position. Therefore, it is sufficient that the covering length of the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 on the second main surface of the glass 10 is greater than the covering length of the frame 40, and it is not necessary to cover the entire second main surface of the glass 10, so as to reduce the influence of the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 on the light transmission, and enable the light to pass through the glass 10 smoothly and be absorbed by the solar cell.
[0064] Furthermore, the covering length of the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 on the second main surface of the glass 10 is less than or equal to the distance between the side surface of the cell 30 and the side surface of the glass 10.
[0065] In the solar cell module, there is a certain distance between the side surface of the cell and the side surface of the glass. Through the above settings, the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film covers this distance without covering the cell, avoiding affecting the light absorption of the cell. Usually, a plurality of cells are included in the solar cell module, and the plurality of cells are arranged in an array form. Those skilled in the art can understand that the side surface of the cell described in the embodiment of the present invention refers to the side surface of the outermost row and outermost column of cells in the cell array close to the frame.
[0066] Furthermore, a sealant 60 is also provided in the card slot of the frame 40. Through the setting of the sealant 60, the laminate is fixed to the frame and plays a role in waterproofing.
[0067] Figure 2 shows a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a solar cell module according to another embodiment of the present invention. As Figure 2 shown, the laminate further includes: a moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 provided on the first main surface of the glass 10. The covering length of the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 on the first main surface of the glass 10 is greater than the covering length of the frame 40 on the second main surface of the glass 10, and the moisture-resistant and compression-resistant insulating film 50 does not cover the entire first main surface of the glass 10. Specifically, Figure 6 shows Figure 2Schematic diagram of the coverage area of the compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 provided on the glass 10 in the shown solar cell module, as Figure 6 shown, surface A represents the second major surface of the glass 10 (i.e., the side of the glass 10 away from the cell 30), and surface C represents the side edge of the glass 10 (i.e., the side of the glass 10 close to the frame 40). The compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 is provided on the second major surface (i.e., surface A) of the glass 10 and on the side of the glass 10 close to the frame 40 (i.e., surface C), blocking the path for cations to gather from the edge of the glass 10 to the cell 30 under a high-voltage and high-humidity environment, and thus effectively reducing the PID effect under a high-voltage system.
[0068] Figure 3 Schematic cross-sectional view of a solar cell module according to another embodiment of the present invention is shown, as Figure 3 shown, the laminate further includes: compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation films 50 respectively provided on the first major surface, the second major surface and the side surfaces of the two pieces of glass 10. Specifically, Figure 7 shown Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the coverage area of the compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 provided on the glass 10 in the shown solar cell module, as Figure 7 shown, surface B represents the first major surface of the glass 10 (i.e., the side of the glass 10 close to the cell 30). The compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 is provided on the side of the glass 10 away from the cell 30 (i.e., surface A), on the side of the glass 10 close to the cell 30 (i.e., surface B), and on the side of the glass 10 close to the frame 40 (i.e., surface C), further blocking the path for cations to gather from the edge of the glass 10 to the cell 30 under a high-voltage and high-humidity environment, and further reducing the PID effect under a high-voltage system.
[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 is 10 nm to 200 nm, such as 20 nm, 30 nm, 40 nm, 50 nm, 60 nm, 70 nm, 80 nm, 90 nm, 100 nm, 110 nm, 120 nm, 130 nm, 140 nm, 150 nm, 160 nm, 170 nm, 180 nm, 190 nm. The compressive resistance, moisture resistance and insulation film 50 is formed by bonding one or more of silicone oil, fluorosilicone oil, silicone, and silicone grease with the silicon oxide on the surface of the glass 10.
[0070] In the embodiment of the present invention, the resistivity of the encapsulation film provided between the glass 10 and the cell 30 is greater than or equal to 1.0×10 16 Ω·cm.
[0071] The solar cell module is divided into a single-glass module and a double-glass module. In the single-glass module, glass 10 is only provided on the front side (i.e., the light incident surface) of the cell 30, and the back side (i.e., the backlight surface) of the cell 30 is encapsulated with a polymer material backplane. In the double-glass module, glass 10 is provided on both the front and back sides of the cell 30.
[0072] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the solar cell module is a single-glass module, it only includes one piece of glass 10 provided with the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film as described above, and the glass 10 is provided on the front side of the cell 30;
[0073] When the solar cell module is a double-glass module, the solar cell module includes two pieces of glass 10, which are respectively provided on the front and back sides of the cell 30, and the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 is provided on at least one second main surface of the glass 10 away from the cell 30 and on the side surface of the glass 10 close to the frame 40.
[0074] That is, the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 can be provided on the glass 10 located on the front side of the cell 30, or on the glass 10 located on the back side of the cell 30, or on both pieces of glass 10. And, in the case where the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 is provided on both pieces of glass 10, the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 can be provided on both the first main surface and the second main surface of the front glass 10, while the back glass 10 is only provided with the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 on the second main surface; or the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 can be provided on both the first main surface and the second main surface of the back glass 10, while the front glass 10 is only provided with the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 on the second main surface; or, both pieces of glass 10 are provided with the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 on the first main surface and the second main surface (as Figure 3 shown); or, both pieces of glass 10 are only provided with the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 on the second main surface (as Figure 2 shown). Optionally, as Figure 8 shown, the covering width of the compressive resistance, moisture resistance, and insulation film 50 on the second surface of the back glass is greater than the covering width on the second surface of the front glass.
[0075] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the present invention, a junction box is also provided on the backplane or the back glass.
[0076] On the other hand, the present invention also provides a preparation method for preparing the above-mentioned solar cell module, Figure 9 which shows a schematic diagram of the main process for preparing the solar cell module. As Figure 9 shown, the preparation method may include the following steps:
[0077] Step 101: Provide glass 10, which has a first major surface, a second major surface opposite the first major surface, and side surfaces; generate a compressive moisture-resistant insulating film 50 on the second major surface and the side surfaces of the glass 10;
[0078] Step 102: Sequentially dispose a packaging film 20 and a battery cell 30 on the first major surface of the glass 10, and form a laminate through lamination;
[0079] Step 103: Dispose a frame 40 on the side surface of the laminate;
[0080] Wherein, the compressive moisture-resistant insulating film 50 can prevent cations from flowing into the battery cell 30;
[0081] The covering length of the compressive moisture-resistant insulating film 50 on the second major surface of the glass 10 is greater than the covering length of the frame 40 on the second major surface of the glass 10, and the compressive moisture-resistant insulating film 50 does not cover the entire second major surface of the glass 10.
[0082] Regarding the above-mentioned step 101, the specific implementation manners may include:
[0083] Step 1-1: Clean the surface of the glass 10 with a cleaning solution;
[0084] Step 1-2: Perform surface activation treatment on the formation area of the compressive moisture-resistant insulating film 50 on the glass 10, so as to break and activate the Si-O bonds on the surface of the glass 10;
[0085] Step 1-3: Add a treatment agent to the formation area, perform plasma surface treatment on the formation area, so that the treatment agent bonds with the silicon oxide on the surface of the formation area, and perform heat treatment on the formation area to generate the compressive moisture-resistant insulating film 50.
[0086] The compressive moisture-resistant insulating film refers to an insulating film with high voltage and high humidity resistance. Under the action of an electric field, oxygen / nitrogen is ionized and accelerated by the electric field, and a treatment agent including one or more of silicone oil, fluorosilicone oil, silicone, and silicone grease is bombarded by nitrogen / oxygen ions, so that the long-chain molecules of the treatment agent are broken and then bond with the silicon oxide on the glass surface to generate.
[0087] Among them, the treatment agent is one or more of silicone oil, fluorosilicone oil, silicone, and silicone grease. Under the action of an electric field, oxygen / nitrogen is ionized and accelerated by the electric field. The treatment agent including one or more of silicone oil, fluorosilicone oil, silicone, and silicone grease is bombarded by nitrogen / oxygen ions, so that the long-chain molecules of the treatment agent are broken and bonded with the silicon oxide on the glass surface to form a compressive resistance moisture-insulating film. The temperature of the heat treatment is 60°C to 150°C (such as 70°C, 80°C, 90°C, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, 130°C, 140°C, etc.), and the time of the heat treatment is 3 min to 10 min (such as 4 min, 5 min, 6 min, 7 min, 8 min, 9 min, 10 min). After the long-chain molecules of the treatment agent are broken and bonded with the silicon oxide on the glass surface, heat-treating the formed area helps to improve the bonding force between the compressive resistance moisture-insulating film 50 and the glass surface, and thus better exerts its high-voltage resistance and high-humidity resistance effects.
[0088] For the above step 103, the specific implementation manner may include:
[0089] Step 3-1, arranging a sealant 60 in the card slot of the frame 40;
[0090] Step 3-2, fixing the laminate with the frame 40.
[0091] A sealant 60 is arranged in the card slot of the frame 40. By arranging the sealant 60, the laminate is fixed to the frame 40 and plays a waterproof role.
[0092] The solar cell module is divided into a single-glass module and a double-glass module. In the single-glass module, glass 10 is only arranged on the front surface (i.e., the light incident surface) of the battery cell 30, and the back surface (i.e., the backlight surface) of the battery cell 30 is encapsulated with a polymer material backplane. In the double-glass module, glass 10 is arranged on both the front and back surfaces of the battery cell 30.
[0093] Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, in step 102, after sequentially arranging the encapsulation film 20 and the battery cell 30 on the first main surface of the glass 10 and installing the frame 40 on the laminate, the step of installing a junction box on the backplane or the back glass is further included.
[0094] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, the covering length of the compression-resistant moisture-insulating film 50 on the second main surface of the glass 10 is greater than the covering length of the frame 40 on the second main surface of the glass 10. Since the sealant 60 is provided in the card slot of the frame 40, it effectively protects the battery cells from high-voltage and high-humidity application environments and reduces the PID effect. On the other hand, it is also possible to control that the compression-resistant moisture-insulating film 50 does not cover the entire second main surface of the glass 10. Through this setting, the situation where the formation of the compression-resistant moisture-insulating film 50 on the entire glass surface affects the absorption of sunlight and thus reduces the power of the solar cell module is avoided.
[0095] The method for preparing a solar cell module provided by the embodiment of the present invention, due to the provision of a compression-resistant moisture-insulating film capable of preventing cations from flowing into the battery cells on the glass, wherein the covering length of the compression-resistant moisture-insulating film on the second main surface of the glass is greater than the covering length of the frame on the second main surface of the glass, and the compression-resistant moisture-insulating film does not cover the entire second main surface of the glass. The high-voltage resistance performance of the insulating film enables the solar cell module to be applicable to high-voltage systems, improving the power generation efficiency of the solar cell module. The moisture-blocking function of the insulating film reduces the PID effect of the solar cell module under high-voltage systems, improving the output power of the solar cell module. At the same time, since the insulating film does not completely cover the entire surface of the glass, the power of the solar cell module is increased. In addition, the preparation process of the solar cell module provided by the embodiment of the present invention is simple, improving the preparation efficiency of the solar cell module and reducing the process manufacturing difficulty and preparation cost.
[0096] The following uses several specific embodiments to illustrate in detail the method for preparing a solar cell module provided by the present invention and the obtained solar cell module.
[0097] Embodiment 1:
