PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SUCH A PHOTOVOLTAIC CELL ASSEMBLY

摘要

A method a photovoltaic cell assembly comprising a first and second photovoltaic cell is manufactured using an electrically conducting connection strip having a first and second lip integrally formed in or extending from the connection strip, a width of the first and second lip being smaller than a width of the strip. The lips are preferably bonded to the contact pads on a side of the cell at which the connection strip is located. Ultrasonic bonding of the first and second lip to the contact pads of the first and second photo-voltaic cell respectively.
