Abstract

Current injection during damp heat (DH) test have been reported to accelerate certain type of long-term degradation observed in of photovoltaic (PV) modules deployed in field. In this paper, we present the current status of our damp heat testing with current injection or light irradiation on flexible PV modules, with some preliminary results.
