What is a solar module disassembly line?

Developed by Japanese PV equipment provider NPC Incorporated, the solar module disassembly line is claimed to enable the reuse of frames, junction boxes, intact broken glass, solar cells and EVA sheets. The module disassembyl line. Image: NPC Incorporated

How do I install a solar photovoltaic system?

Installing solar photovoltaic systems requires specialized skills and knowledge. Installation should only be performed by qualified personnel. Before installing a solar photovoltaic system, installers should familiarize themselves with its mechanical and electrical requirements.

How does envie use disassembly equipment to dismantle PV panels?

“Envie will utilize our disassembly equipment to dismantle PV panels and then cooperate with Rosi, a French company that developed recycling processes allowing to separate and recover metals such as silver and high purity silicon from the PV cells,” it further explained.

How do you protect a Trina Solar PV module?

Cover the front surface of modules by an opaque material when repairing. Modules when exposed to sunlight generate high voltage and are dangerous. Trina Solar PV modules are equipped with bypass diodes in the junction box. This minimizes module heating and current losses.

Which direction should a photovoltaic module be installed?

When installing photovoltaic modules in the northern Hemisphere, the optimal installation direction of the module is to face south; When installing photovoltaic modules in the Southern Hemisphere, the optimal installation direction of the module is to face north. Serial connected PV modules should be installed in the same orientation and Angle.

How should a PV system be designed & installed?

PV systems should be designed and installed with such possibilities in mind, and measures should have been incorporated such as two-column racks (rather than post-strut), thick or non-glass covers, rigid backsheets, and through-bolted clamps. The designer should specify PV modules with high ratings for both uplift and down-force pressure.
