BioSolar producing bio-based PV solar backsheets
In California, BioSolar announced a successful production run of its new white BioBacksheet – a bio-based material from renewable plant sources that reduces the cost of photovoltaic (PV) solar modules. To sell BioBacksheets in the North American and European Union markets, material properties of white BioBacksheet, which are made from brand new polymer materials, are now required to be registered with UL and IEC.
Panel manufacturers will rely on this information to ensure that the individual components used in the panels as well as the fully assembled panels will meet the demands placed on them by harsh environmental conditions while ensuring safe and reliable operation.
BioSolar recently announced it had successfully modified its original translucent BioBacksheet to meet the PV industry’s demand for white BioBacksheet without compromising its industry-leading product characteristics. The new white BioBacksheet is expected to open up a wider pool of potential customers.
