Description

Multi-Si Users of this dataset should apply the provided life cycle inventory (LCI) data for environmental impact assessment of solar PV systems within the context of China's renewable energy sector for the period 2011 to 2016. It should include the production phase of solar modules and acknowledge the technological specifications such as module size, efficiency, and construction materials (e.g., Multi-Si cells, PV glass, aluminum alloy, binders). The data is intended for analysis of environmental impacts using the Life Cycle Assessment approach. When using this data, ensure to reference the peer-reviewed sources provided for comprehensive methodology and data validation purposes.

Technology

Compact PV glass, cells and composite together with binder, encase with aluminum alloy, and install junction box on the back
