RayBo®: Cybrid's Groundbreaking Encapsulation for Better TOPCon Performance

NEW DELHI - Nov. 22, 2024 - PRLog -- Cybrid Technologies, an industry leader in encapsulation solutions, has developed RayBo® a specialized encapsulant that meets the unique needs of TOPCon modules by offering superior protection against UVID (UV-Induced Degradation), moisture, and thermal stress.

1. RETC Warnings: UVID Concerns for N-TOPCon Modules
   The 2022 PV Module Index Report, RETC issued a warning to the industry regarding the susceptibility of new cell technologies, particularly N-TOPCon, to UVID. According to RETC's findings, 40% of the module samples tested displayed "red light" warning signals, indicating a heightened risk of degradation.
2. KIWA UVID Test Results: Performance of Different Encapsulant Films
   KIWA conducted extensive testing on the performance of different encapsulant films paired with TOPCon modules, focusing on degradation caused by UVID.

With decades of experience in encapsulant development, the company recognized the opportunity to deliver a solution that would not only safeguard TOPCon future but also enhance its performance in challenging environment. RayBo®, Cybrid's flagship encapsulant, is engineered to address the specific environmental challenges faced by TOPCon modules. In response to these challenges, RayBo® encapsulant has been engineered to block UV radiation and prevent degradation, positioning it as an optimal solution for TOPCon modules. Moreover, RayBo® not only protects the module but also enhances energy output by converting harmful UV light into beneficial blue light.

The effectiveness of RayBo® has been verified through independent testing by TUV Nord and Shanghai Jiao Tong University, which have highlighted the importance of advanced encapsulation in mitigating the effects of UVID in TOPCon modules.

Real-World Benefits: Long-Term Performance of TOPCon Modules with RAYBO®
TOPCon complex structure makes it particularly vulnerable to environmental degradation. RayBo® is essential to the long-term viability of TOPCon modules. Key benefits:

• Extended Module Lifespan: RayBo® ability to protect against UV degradation extends the operational life of TOPCon modules, reducing the need for replacements.
• Lower Levelized Cost of Electricity (LCOE): By improving the durability and energy yield of TOPCon modules, RayBo® helps reduce the overall LCOE, making solar projects more economically viable.
• Higher Energy Yields: Through RAYBO® UV-to-blue light conversion technology, solar installations see a measurable increase in energy generation, improving the return on investment for solar developers.

The adoption of TOPCon technology marks a significant step forward for solar energy. However, its long-term success depends on overcoming the encapsulation challenges that have emerged. Cybrid's RayBo® encapsulant provides the solution the industry has been waiting for. By protecting TOPCon modules from environmental degradation, RayBo® ensures that these modules will continue to perform at their highest potential, even in the harshest conditions.
