The study emphasizes the need for further experiments to understand space radiation's impact on flexible silicon photovoltaic modules, as there are no detailed test standards. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) facilitates international trade by coordinating electrical and electronic goods standardization among its members.
- Flexible Silicon Photovoltaic Modules:
- Space radiation's potential impact on modules needs more research.
- Current IEC standards lack detailed testing protocols for flexible silicon photovoltaics.
- IEC Technical Committee 8 is encouraged to develop these tests.
- Performing strain effects tests is recommended due to potential encapsulant failures and conformal contact issues.
