1) A study found that monocrystalline PERC solar modules typically suffer from 4-6% light-induced degradation (LID), but that modules left outdoors in open circuit conditions showed signs of natural regeneration from LID over time at field temperatures. 2) Laboratory tests confirmed that PERC cells can be regenerated at field temperatures of 50-60°C through simultaneous carrier injection and annealing. 3) However, field tests found that regeneration is much slower when modules are mounted and operating under maximum power point tracking conditions rather than open circuit. Separate regeneration treatment is still needed at the production stage for manufacturers.
