Imex Canada Inc. supplies thin film solar modules. Due to double glass lamination, thin film solar panels are more durable, as well as, providing 5%-10% higher generating capacity compared to other materials.
We maintain a large inventory of thin film solar modules along with applicable accessories. A full set consists of a crate of 50 solar panels, mid clamps, end clamps, MC 4 connectors, and DC cable.
Benefits of our thin film solar module include:
- It provides excellent power generator performance
- It has an excellent low-irradiance effect as it provides a high absorption for the full spectrum. When exposed to a low-light condition at dusk or dawn of the day, the power generation performance has proven to be higher than other types of solar modules
- Provides a low hot spot effect as the module has elongated cells that reduce the hot spot effect, which leads to better power generation capacity
- Good stability
- Our thin film modules are aesthetically appealing. They are the preferred choice for buildings with higher standards.
Comparison of C-Si & Thin Film Technologies
| Thin Film | C-Si | |
| Generating Capacity | Low temperature coefficient, excellent low-radiation effect, low hot spot effect. 5%-10% higher generating capacity comparing with C-Si module annually | High temperature coefficient, PID effect, high hot spot effect; low absorb of scattered lights and diffuse lights; high dependency on installation angle |
| Maintenance Cost | High anti-dust capability | Regular cleaning for dust accumulation |
| Life Time | Double glass module, longer life time | C-Si cell easy to be broken, short life time, has PID effect |
| Application Environment | Double glass lamination, anti-moisture, anti – saline, corrosiveness resistance, wind-sand resistance | Back sheet easy to corrosion, strong water permeability, easily become yellow |
| Manufacturing Costs | Low | High |
