Why Panels Degrade
UV Exposure
Continuous UV light slowly breaks down the semiconductor material, reducing power output over time.
Thermal Cycling
Daily heating and cooling causes micro-cracks in cells and solder joints, decreasing efficiency.
Potential-Induced Degradation
Voltage stress between cells and frame can cause leakage currents that reduce output.
