Development of lightweight and flexible crystalline silicon solar
C-Si solar cell modules typically consist of a front-side cover made of 3.2 mm-thick glass, connected cells encapsulated with ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer (EVA) or polyolefin elastomers (POEs), and a thin backsheet such as a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) core film, a POE core film, a polyvinylidene fluoride film, or a versatile polyvinyl fluoride film [13].
Crystalline Si Module
Multi-crystalline photovoltaic modules are made up from silicon off-cuts. They consist of bits and small pieces of pure crystals to create a cell. As the individual crystals are not perfectly aligned together, mc-Si PV modules are not as efficient as sc-Si PV modules. Losses at the joints between crystals contribute to lower efficiency.
