| Use advice for data set | Users of this dataset should apply the provided life cycle inventory (LCI) data for environmental impact assessment of solar PV systems within the context of China's renewable energy sector for the period 2011 to 2016. It should include the production phase of solar modules and acknowledge the technological specifications such as module size, efficiency, and construction materials (e.g., Multi-Si cells, PV glass, aluminum alloy, binders). The data is intended for analysis of environmental impacts using the Life Cycle Assessment approach. When using this data, ensure to reference the peer-reviewed sources provided for comprehensive methodology and data validation purposes. |
| Technical purpose of product or process | This dataset describes the production of solar PV modules, specifically for assembling compact photovoltaic glass with multicrystalline silicon cells and binders, encased in an aluminum alloy with a junction box installed on the back. These modules are intended for construction of a 1 kWp solar PV system, where each module contains 54 Multi-Si cells with a size of 156*156 mm2 and an efficiency of 16%. These are used in photovoltaic systems to convert solar energy into electrical energy, primarily in the renewable energy sector. |
