What is a solar cell manufacturing course?

With this course, you will gain a comprehensive overview of solar cell manufacturing and be able to describe several current trends in the field. This course is catered to professionals working in, or aspiring to work in, the photovoltaics or renewable industry.

How does solar manufacturing work?

How Does Solar Work? Solar manufacturing encompasses the production of products and materials across the solar value chain. While some concentrating solar-thermal manufacturing exists, most solar manufacturing in the United States is related to photovoltaic (PV) systems.

What is solar-thermal manufacturing?

While some concentrating solar-thermal manufacturing exists, most solar manufacturing in the United States is related to photovoltaic (PV) systems. Those systems are comprised of PV modules, racking and wiring, power electronics, and system monitoring devices, all of which are manufactured. Learn how PV works.

How are thin film PV modules made?

Thin film PV modules are typically processed as a single unit from beginning to end, where all steps occur in one facility. The manufacturing typically starts with float glass coated with a transparent conductive layer, onto which the photovoltaic absorber material is deposited in a process called close-spaced sublimation.

What does a PV Manufacturing course cover?

The course covers the entire PV manufacturing value chain from sand to modules: 1. From sand to silicon wafers a. Polysilicon manufacturing b. Ingot formation and wafering 2. Solar cell manufacturing a. Chemical cleaning and texturing b. Diffusion and post diffusion processes c. Front and rear surface passivation and minority carrier lifetimes d.
