A typical c-Si solar PV module is made up of several silicon (Si) cells connected in series, which are the key components of the module. The cells are encapsulated between two sheets of polymer (EVA − Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) and a front glass on top and a backsheet, which is a combination of polymers (PET: Polyethylene terephthalate and PVDF:
Half-cell modules have solar cells that are cut in half, improving the efficiency and durability of the module. Traditional panels with 60 and 72 cells will have 120 and 144 cells, respectively. When solar cells are halved, their current is also halved, so resistive losses are reduced, and the cells can produce slightly more power.
