"As a result of our scientists’ dedication and commitment, solar cell manufacturers were able to make more efficient cells, [and] contributed to improved solar cell performance and lower cost of ownership."
Chuck Xu
Global Business Director, DuPont Photovoltaic and Advanced Materials
"We at SMUD are very proud of this endeavor, one of the first utility-scale solar arrays of its kind in the world. SMUD was able to get considerable use out of the Rancho Seco array, going well beyond the pioneering aspect to be utilized as a practical generation source for many years."
Eric Poff
Superintendent, Sacramento Municipal Utility District (SMUD)

Extreme Lab-Based Testing for Unrivaled Real-World Performance
Module Accelerated Sequential Testing (MAST) is the pinnacle of testing, the only of its kind, and uses real-world conditions and the impacts of long-term aging on PV modules.
MAST takes 6 to 9 months of simulated, extreme testing to ensure that our materials withstand harsh environments around the world. Because of this level of commitment. it makes it difficult for others to test as stringently as we do, and our material standards are therefore higher than the rest of the industry’s. Our materials endure:
0Hours
in a humidity chamber
(25+ years of stress)
0+
thermal stress cycles
(mimics weather patterns)
0Hours
in an ultraviolet ray Chamber
(25+ years of stress)
Long-Lasting Value

Investment returns for solar can increase by more than 30% if the lifetime of the solar system can be increased from the industry standard 10 years to 25+ years.
“For us, power output and lifetime are key drivers. We need to use the best materials in our projects—proven materials that will last at least 25 years.”
-Jean-Luc Westphal, President, Hanau Energies Concept
Competitive backsheets can show defects after just 5 years, putting system performance, payback, and safety greatly at risk. Our backsheets have been rigorously field tested for over 35 years, maintaining durability and reliability.
When untested materials go into systems and fail, replacement costs go up. It’s important to select the right materials, the ones that matter.
One key driver for lower overall cost is an increase in the solar conversion efficiency of solar panels. Our products improve solar conversion by 23% with less degradation of components, compared to competitive materials.
Better efficiency means more power for less cost, transforming the homes and lives of hundreds of thousands of people with more affordable, more accessible, and safer electricity.
Peace of mind and reliability are of utmost importance when considering solar module placement on rooftops, on your land, and other installations. DuPont Tedlar®-based backsheets, found in the majority of world-wide solar panels have proven to show little to no degradation, and the lowest failure rates in the industry - providing the highest level of safety and reliability when powering the future.
We created the benchmark for safety testing in solar materials for more reliable installations.
Our high-performance materials provide significant return on investment because of the savings realized through lower power degradation and subsequent replacement expenses.
Using inferior materials may seem cost-effective initially, but can lead to unexpected and potentially catastrophic failures.
