SINGLE CELL ENCAPSULATION AND FLEXIBLE-FORMAT MODULE ARCHITECTURE FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER GENERATION AND METHOD FOR CONSTRUCTING THE SAME

摘要

A method for encapsulating photovoltaic cells into single functional units is described. These units share the mechanical and electric properties of the encapsulation layers and allow for flexible format module architecture to be implemented at the cell level. This enables cost reduction and improved performance of photovoltaic power generation.
