At HZB-PVcomB, we support robustness assessment of solar cells, modules, and encapsulants via: - Climate stress chambers: - Humidity & thermal cycling: Controlled humidity (up to 85% RH), temperature (–40 °C to +85 °C), and light intensity - UV aging: UV-A exposure to simulate solar radiation-induced degradation - Thermal cycling: Rapid transitions between extreme temperatures - Heat soaking: Long-duration elevated-temperature tests - Long-term MPP tracking: Under constant illumination (e.g., 1-sun, 85°C bias) - Combinatorial protocols: Custom test sequences (e.g., damp heat → thermal cycling → UV) - Post-test analysis: Optical/electrical characterization via the Corelab facilities & access info
