Abstract:

The present invention relates a photovoltaic module comprising 126, 138 or 150 back-contact half-cells. In an embodiment, the half-cells are divided into 3 groups of each 2 parallel strings with each string containing ⅙ of the total number of half-cells. The module comprises an additional row of 6 back-contact half-cells, relative to known half-cell modules.
