The backsheet may be a reflective backsheet that includes a multilayer optical film, or the photovoltaic module may include a reflective multilayer optical film separate from the backsheet. The multilayer optical film has an optical stack with a plurality of alternating first and second optical layers having different indices of refraction and a left band edge in a range from 600 nanometers to 900 nanometers. The multilayer optical film reflects at least a portion of light in a range of wavelengths that corresponds with the absorption bandwidth of the photovoltaic cell.
