Study finds much lower-than-expected degradation in 1980s and 1990s solar modules

Study finds much lower-than-expected degradation in 1980s and 1990s solar modules

Researchers at SUPSI found that six Swiss PV systems installed in the late 1980s and early 1990s show exceptionally low degradation rates of just 0.16% to 0.24% per year after more than 30 years of operation. The study shows that thermal stress, ventilation, and material design play a greater role in long-term module reliability than
