Crystalline silicon solar cells are not bendable because the silicon material is very thin and brittle and must be encapsulated in glass, making them heavy, thick and impractical to transport. However, crystalline silicon solar cells will soon be replaced by thin-film solar cells in terms of conversion efficiency and property characteristics, because thin-film solar cells are amorphous silicon solar cells. For example, Zhongyi Industrial Copper Indium Gallium Selenide thin film solar cells. Cells use various elements. Attached to a stainless steel film substrate or plastic substrate by co-evaporation or spraying, the entire solar cell can be folded. Zhongyi Xingye gallium arsenide thin film solar cells can even be cut to suitable length and customized. From now on, solar panelsThey can be thin, light and foldable, but folding the entire battery is not possible as it will damage the internal structure of the panel. I believe that with the development of thin film solar cell technology this will be possible. in the future. .
Why can't solar panels be folded, stored and transported like fabric?

Introduction Why can't solar panels be folded like cloth for storage and transportation? Crystalline silicon solar cells are not bendable because the silicon material is very thin and brittle and must be encapsulated in glass, so it is heavy.
