Glass-glass bifacial solar panels feature glass on both the front and back sides, which allows them to capture sunlight from both direct and reflected sources. This dual-sided design boosts energy production by harnessing reflected light from the ground, snow, or other nearby surfaces, increasing overall efficiency. As a result, these panels can produce more electricity than traditional single-sided modules, especially in environments with high albedo (reflective surfaces).
In addition to their enhanced performance, glass-glass bifacial panels offer superior durability. The glass-to-glass construction makes them more resistant to weathering, corrosion, and physical damage compared to conventional panels with a plastic backing. This robust design extends the panel’s lifespan and reduces degradation over time, making them a solid investment for commercial and utility-scale solar projects. While they come at a higher initial cost, the long-term benefits of increased energy output and longer lifespan often outweigh the upfront expense.
