<p>Scientists have developed a new water-jet delamination recycling technology. They first separate the glass from the rest of the module, then process the rest. It achieved silver with 97% purity. </p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.pv-magazine.com/2026/07/08/water-jet-delamination-for-solar-module-recycling/">Water-jet delamination for solar module recycling</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.pv-magazine.com">pv magazine Global</a>.</p>

TÜV NORD study finds back-contact advantage over TOPCon is limited to mild shading conditions

PV Magazine (International) Jul 08, 2026 by Emiliano Bellini
Processed Solar_Renewables

<p>A TÜV NORD study found that back-contact (BC) modules outperform TOPCon modules under mild partial shading, particularly when three or fewer cells are shaded across different substrings within a string. However, once shading exceeds four cells, the performance advantage disappears, with both technologies experiencing similar power losses of around 50%.</p> <p>The post <a href="https://www.pv-magazine.com/2026/07/08/tuv-nord-study-confirms-back-contact-advantage-over-topcon-is-limited-to-mild-shading-conditions/">TÜV NORD study finds back-contact advantage over TOPCon is limited to mild shading conditions</a> appeared first on <a href="https://www.pv-magazine.com">pv magazine Global</a>.</p>
