“Understanding the damaging effects of UV radiation in emerging silicon solar cell technologies will enable the identification of the underlying mechanisms that may affect both the power output and durability of modules,” they said. The researchers tested a range of silicon cell designs under long-term exposure to UV light, to better understand damage that they could suffer in the field. Within a silicon solar cell, the UV light can cause damage to the passivation layers, to the silicon beneath, and at the interface between the two. “Solar cell performance is also adversely affected by UV radiation through the generation of surface defects.” “Historically, the harmful effects of UV radiation have largely been associated with the aging of module packaging materials and have led to encapsulant discoloration, delamination, and backsheet cracking,” the group said. Scientists led by the US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) looked at the role of UV light in some of these mechanisms, and found that in many of the latest cell designs, UV could be to blame for significant performance losses. And understanding them will be key to developing cells that can generate more electricity for an even longer period. However, there are still mechanisms and interactions at work between tiny particles within a PV module. They usually promise to retain 80% to 90% of their initial performance by the end of this period. Shipping is due to start in May this year.Improvements to solar cell technology and manufacturing processes mean that modules can be sold today with performance guarantees for up to 30 years. You may want to check the Kickstarter page where the project was launched for other important details on the project. All options include a USB A to 2 USB Type-C cable. Rewards start at USD36 for the early bird AAA combo with 4x AAA Solarcell rechargeable battery, USD40 for the early bird AA combo with 4x AA Solarcell rechargeable battery and USD60 for the early bird 18650 combo with 2x 18650 Solarcell rechargeable battery. The project has been launched already on Kickstarter and already surpassed it’s HK$ 20,000 (~$2,600 US) funding goal. What’s more? You can be sure that you are not going to be polluting your environment because Solarcell is environmentally friendly.
There’s also a custom-designed PCB in the battery that helps to ensure safety. Solarcell batteries can be quickly charged in about 1-2 hours and the batteries have lower self-discharge rates and longer storage life, so there is the ease of usage and convenience. Important protection features including power leakage protection, short circuit protection, high-pressure protection and over-current protection.
Has a LED indicator (turns red when the Solarcell is being charged through the USB-C cable and green when it’s done charging).Provides renewable energy and quite environmentally friendly.All types of battery models for all devices.All these options can further enhance your convenience and make sure all your batteries can always be charged up easily.” Hence, you can choose to charge them from your wall socket, power bank, laptop or even with a solar panel. “With our USB-C connection, you can charge Solarcell with any USB-A to C and USB-C to C cable. Solarcell was also built with convenience in mind. Li-Po batteries also store and generate higher energy than other technologies, so Solarcell should offer much higher energy capacity and higher voltage output. So imagine how many disposable batteries that you’d have used in those years (about 1200 disposable batteries). Solarcell is powered by Lithium polymer (Li-Po) rechargeable batteries whose life cycle is about 10 years (1200 charge cycles). It was designed to help you save some costs. Solarcell has some benefits over regular disposable batteries. “We offer a wide range of battery models to help you power up any kind of devices you have and use frequently.” “Solarcell is a new generation of Lithium rechargeable batteries with USB-C connection, containing high power capacity while maintaining a high level of safety,” the team writes.
If you have ever loved the idea of recharging batteries with solar power or have been looking for a great way to minimize the use of traditional batteries, then you might want to take a closer look at the new Solarcell that has just launched and funded on Kickstarter by a team of developers.
