The cost of PV glass per square meter currently averages at $6. Considering that double-glass PV modules use glass on both sides, the cost of glass alone doubles if compared to glass-foil solar panels. A benefit of most glass-glass solar panels is that they are frameless, which reduces their price. [pdf]
