Anti-reflective coatings on the solar panels' glass enhance light transmittance, consequently increasing the overall efficiency of the photovoltaic module. 10,15 Moreover, anti-reflective coatings are necessary to ensure the safety of drivers.
The most common commercial PV coating consists of a ~100 nm single-layer antireflection coating (ARC) of nano-porous silica deposited onto the solar glass cover via sol–gel roller coating followed by a high-temperature sintering and tempering process.
When sunlight shines on the photovoltaic panel, part of the visible light will be reflected, and the rest will be converted and utilized. Therefore, the transparency and anti-reflection of the self-cleaning coatings applied on photovoltaic modules cannot be ignored.
Anti-soiling is the most common property in addition to anti-reflection, and coatings for solar panels should be multifunctional, with other properties such as photoactivity, self-healing, and anti-microbial properties under investigation. Mozumder et al. offers a detailed review of multifunctionality for solar cover glass coatings. 5.
