Description
The a-Si triple junction film photovoltaic laminate has an area of approximately 0.79 m², a weight of about 14.4 kg, and an average power output of around 75 W. The laminate does not include an aluminum frame. The dataset includes major raw and auxiliary materials, energy inputs, atmospheric emissions, and waste generated during the production process. Infrastructure such as manufacturing equipment and factory construction is excluded from the system boundary of the dataset. The life cycle inventory is compiled from data obtained from multiple sources. The manufacturing process of the a-Si triple junction film photovoltaic laminate includes process such as conductive glass edging, cleaning, laser scribing, deposition, cooling, magnetron sputtering, annealing, ultrasonic welding, lamination, junction box installation, and testing.
