More Information
Summary:A photovoltaic (PV) module includes a front layer, a rear layer, and a string of series connected PV cell segments laminated between the front layer and the rear layer. Each PV cell segment has a front surface including a front electrode and a rear surface including a rear electrode. Adjacent PV cell segments are overlapped by an overlap amount with the front electrode of one of the adjacent PV cell segments disposed under and in direct contact with the rear electrode the other of the adjacent PV cell segments. At least one adhesive strip is attached to the bottom surfaces of a pair of adjacent PV cell segments.
