METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING A PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULE HAVING LOW RESISTIVE LOSS

摘要

The invention relates mainly to a method for manufacturing a photovoltaic module including the following consecutive steps: providing photovoltaic cells comprising collection fingers; cutting the photovoltaic cells in a first direction (41) perpendicular to the collection fingers in order to form a plurality of sub-cells (40); aligning the sub-cells (40) in a second direction (42) perpendicular to the first direction (41), so as to form groups of electrically isolated sub-cells, each group of sub-cells having a dimension in the second direction (42) that is substantially identical to the dimension of the photovoltaic cells in the second direction; aligning the groups of sub-cells in the first direction (41), by manipulating the groups of sub-cells one by one; interconnecting the groups of sub-cells (40) so as to form a plurality of chains (410) of sub-cells, the sub-cells (40) of each group belonging to separate chains (410) of sub-cells; and electrically connecting (F5) the chains (410) of sub-cells (40) in series.
