Problems solved by technology

However, the realization of this technology is based on the fact that there are metal electrodes on the surface of the battery, which will inevitably bring about two problems: First, due to the light shielding and material costs generated by the metal electrodes, it is not conducive to the further improvement of battery efficiency and cost. Second, due to the certain height of the metal electrodes at the overlap, it is easy to form a hard contact in the peripheral area of ​​the metal electrodes during the lamination process, resulting in stress concentration, which can cause cracks in serious cases, making the Reduced reliability of components

Abstract

A connecting structure with a transparent electrode crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell. A cell sheet front electrode forming a battery string is a transparent conductive film-metal composite electrode, and a back electrode is a transparent conductive film-metal composite electrode or a back metal electrode; two adjacent crystalline silicon photovoltaic cell sheets are connected in series in such a manner that the front electrode and the back electrode overlap, with a junction therebetween filled with a conductive binder (8), so that a circuit of the battery string passes therethrough. The cell sheet front and / or back electrode forming a photovoltaic assembly employs a transparent conductive film-metal composite electrode, so that the use of metal in producing a solar cell electrode is greatly reduced or even completely avoided, a shaded area is decreased, and the production cost is lowered. The overlapping connection of the cell sheets further increases the power generation area of the assembly, thereby improving the power output of the assembly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of solar cells, in particular to a connection structure of a crystal silicon photovoltaic cell with a transparent electrode. Background technique [0002] Since the first solar cell was born in Bell Laboratories in 1954, crystalline silicon solar cells have been widely used, the conversion efficiency has been continuously improved, and the production cost has continued to decline. At present, crystalline silicon solar cells account for more than 80% of the total global solar cell market, and the conversion efficiency of the production line of components has exceeded 20%. It is expected to be flat in the next few years. As a clean energy source, crystalline silicon solar cells play an increasingly important role in changing the energy structure and alleviating environmental pressure. [0003] Crystalline silicon modules are the core terminal units of photovoltaic power generation, and their conversion effic...
