Product type
Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) solar cells are a type of thin-film photovoltaic technology that converts sunlight into electricity. Made primarily from cadmium and tellurium, these cells are known for their efficient energy conversion and lower production costs compared to traditional silicon-based solar cells. CdTe solar cells are typically used in large-scale solar power plants and commercial applications due to their ability to perform well in low-light conditions and high temperatures.
| Efficiency | Typically 9% to 12% |
| Thickness | About 1 to 2 micrometers |
| Temperature coefficient | -0.2%/°C |
| Lifespan | 25 years or more |
| Standard module size | 1.6m x 1m |
When choosing cadmium telluride solar cells, consider the efficiency ratings and temperature coefficients that best suit your installation environment. It's important to specify the desired module size and the expected lifespan of the panels. Additionally, inquire about certifications such as IEC standards and recycling programs, as well as the quantity needed for your project to ensure optimal pricing and availability.
