What is the best solar panel?
Choosing a solar panel can be complicated: performance guarantee, polycrystalline, spectral light distribution?
Who understands all the terms?
Here at Voltaicos we prefer to keep things simple, at the end of the day there are two choices:
FOIL-GLASS MODEL
GLASS-GLASS MODEL

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
The difference between the two is obvious: a double-glazed solar panel uses two layers of glass instead of the usual single layer combined with a laminated back sheet (one sheet). The solar cells are in fact encapsulated between two layers of tempered glass, bonded together using a special encapsulant. This protects the solar cells from moisture, dust and other environmental factors such as hail, snow and strong winds. In addition, these solar panels generally have better resistance to UV radiation and perform better in high-temperature areas.
BENEFITS OF GLASS-GLASS SOLAR PANELS
- Durability: Glass-glass solar panels are known for their enhanced durability. The use of glass on both sides provides better protection against environmental factors such as humidity, moisture and temperature fluctuations.
- Improved performance: The double-glazed design of these panels helps maintain better performance over time. Traditional solar panels can suffer efficiency losses due to factors such as delamination or degradation of the back sheet.
- Aesthetic Appeal: Glass-glass solar panels generally have a more elegant and aesthetically pleasing appearance compared to traditional panels. The frameless design and uniform glass surface create a modern, minimalist look that can complement various architectural styles.
