Definitions
- the present disclosure relates to the field of solar cells, and more particularly, to a solar cell array, a solar cell module and a manufacturing method thereof.
- a solar cell module is one of the most important components of a solar power generation device. Sunlight irradiates to a cell from its front surface and is converted to electricity within the cell. Primary grid lines and secondary grid lines are disposed on the front surface and cover part of the front surface of the cell. As such, the part of sunlight irradiating to the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines cannot be converted into electric energy. Thus, the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines need to be as fine as possible in order for the solar cell module to receive more sunlight.
- the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines serve to conduct current, and in terms of resistivity, the finer the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines are, the smaller the cross section area thereof are, which causes greater loss of electricity due to increased resistivity. Therefore, the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines shall be designed to achieve a balance between light blocking and electrical conduction, and to take the cost into consideration.
- the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines of the solar cells are made of expensive silver paste, which results in complicated manufacturing process of the primary grid lines and the secondary grid lines and high cost.
- the primary grid lines on the front surface of a cell are welded with back electrodes of another adjacent cell by a solder strip. Consequently, the welding of the primary grid lines is complicated, and the manufacturing cost of the cells is high.
- two primary grid lines are usually disposed on the front surface of the cell, and formed by applying silver paste to the front surface of the cell.
- the primary grid lines have a great width (for example, up to over 2mm) , which consumes a large amount of silver, and makes the cost high.
- a solar cell with three primary grid lines is provided, but still consumes a large amount of silver, and has a high cost. Moreover, three primary grid lines increase the shading area, which lowers the photoelectric conversion efficiency.
- the number of the primary grid lines is limited by the solder strip.
- the prior art replaces the silver primary grid lines printed on the cell with metal wires, for example, copper wires.
- the copper wires are welded with the secondary grid lines to output the current. Since the silver primary grid lines are no longer used, the cost can be reduced considerably.
- the copper wire has a smaller diameter to reduce the shading area, so the number of the copper wires can be raised up to 10.
- This kind of cell may be called a cell without primary grid lines, in which the metal wire replaces the silver primary grid lines and solder strips in the traditional solar cells.
- the present disclosure provides a solar cell without primary grid lines, which needs neither primary grid line nor sold strip disposed on the cells, and thus lowers the cost.
- the solar cell without primary grid lines can be commercialized for mass production, easy to manufacture with simple equipment, especially in low cost, and moreover have high photoelectric conversion efficiency.
- the structure of the solar cell is not complicated, but each component is crucial.
- the production of the primary grid lines takes various aspects into consideration, such as shading area, electric conductivity, equipment, process, cost, etc., and hence becomes a difficult and hot issue in the solar cell technology.
- a solar cell with two primary grid lines is replaced with a solar cell with three primary grid lines in 2007 through huge efforts of those skilled in the art.
- a few factories came up with a solar cell with four primary grid lines around 2014.
- the concept of multiple primary grid lines is put forward in the recent years, but there is no fairly mature product.
- the metal wires are relatively fine and in a large number. Moreover, the metal wires are connected afterwards and have free ends. Due to the problem concerning the sophistication of the equipment, it cannot be guaranteed that the fine and many metal wires are connected with the cells in accurate positions, especially the accuracy of the positions of the ends. In order to avoid short circuits caused by the metal wire extending beyond the cells, the conductive wires are generally formed in the cells, in which case part of the secondary grid lines at the edges of the cells cannot be connected with the conductive wires well, thereby resulting in current loss.
- the present disclosure seeks to solve at least one of the problems existing in the related art to at least some extent.
- the present disclosure provides a solar cell array that is easy to manufacture in low cost, and improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency.
- the present disclosure further provides a solar cell module having the above solar cell array.
- the solar cell module is easy to manufacture in low cost, and improves the photoelectric conversion efficiency.
- the present disclosure further provides a method for manufacturing the solar cell module.
- a solar cell array includes a plurality of cells and a plurality of conductive wires. Adjacent cells are connected by the plurality of conductive wires.

- the short grid lines can be formed by screen printing silver, which is easy to realize and to control with high accuracy.
