The government have reviewed the FIT in the UK.

A "comprehensive review" of the FIT scheme was undertaken due to growing evidence that large-scale solar farms were putting at risk small-scale renewable projects, such as those found at homes and small businesses.

Whilst the FIT incentive scheme was introduced in April 2010 to kick-start renewable energy generation in the UK. The £400 million a year incentive scheme (now £360 M), is in danger over massive overheating. Therefore, on Feb 7th DECC announced drastic review measures and formally put forward the findings June 8th 2011

The “review” has only looked at schemes of over 50 kilowatt (kW) in size. FIT rates have dropped and effectively will kill off all projects above 50kW.

Index-Linked takes the FIT up 2p April 1st 2011to 43p

Location: Fraunhofer ISE, FreiburgYear of construction: 1984Module type: PQ 10/40/01 (38.4 Pmpp)Technology: Polycrystalline, double glassNominal output: 2.3 kWp

In a long-term study conducted by the Fraunhofer-Institute the SCHOTT Solar modules still achieved over 90 % of their original performance, even after 26 years. For consumers means decades of reliable performance which equals higher yields over time.

Proven long life and excellent performance stability

Backing Foils :

Along with 3M ,SCHOTT Solar took part in the Testing of 52 Back Foils TPT (Tedlar/Polyester/Tedlar) available on the Market .

Of the 52, only 23 passed the IEC norm ...

Only 3 passed the SCHOTT Solar Standard 2x IEC

“This is a Typical case – less adhesion than with a Post it note”

“The Prospect of having such modules on roofs is a nightmare for Manufactures and their customers.”

The most important product features of SCHOTT Solar modules

1. Structures front glass: Less reflection, higher efficiency, lower output degradation

7. Non-extruded, torsion resistant aluminum profile frame: No freezing possible and high mechanical stability

6. High-performance adhesion used to permanently apply the laminate to the frame: permanently mechanical stability

8. Thermally hardened glass: high mechanical stability

2. Frame profile flattened towards the glass: optimal self cleaning and reduction of the shadowing

3. Weather-resistant junction box

High Weather Resistance and high mechanical stability is the basis for a long time durability

5. Optimized distance between frame and cell: low shading

4. Optimized cell distances: against cell connector break and for raised long term stability

Positive performance assortment

Each module is measured (flashed) individually.

The modules are assorted positively on the basis of the measurement results (flash reports).

Each module is delivered with a performance greater than indicated on the product label.

The result: increased energy yields

ExampleSCHOTT POLY® 230 W is delivered with a performance of between 230 and 235 Wp.Modules for this performance class which provide less than 230 Wp are excluded from this performance class.

All electrical measurements on modules are based on the standard of the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy.The measurement tolerance of the nominal output is ± 4 %

Higher energy yield through positive performance assortment

Up to 5 W more performance than indicated on the product label

Measurement record

Up to 30 years linear performance guarantee.

For double-glas modules, SCHOTT Solar even provides a performance guarantee of 30 years.

In practice, SCHOTT Solar modules yield even better performance data as shown by a long-term study of the Fraunhofer Institute.

SCHOTT Solar provides a 25-year linear performance guarantee on standard modules.

Aim of the test was to simulate the influence of 20 years air in buildings with livestock.

The test has been developed for an ammoniacontamination of 50 ppm.

The test took place inside a special atmospheric chamber with following climatic conditions:

Test duration: 1500 h Air temperature: 70°C Relative humidity: 70% Ammonia concentration: 750 ppm

Tested modules: SCHOTT POLY® 2xx SCHOTT POLY® 3xx SCHOTT POLY® 1xx (Produced with the same materials and processing techniques as SCHOTT POLY® 2xx)
