Research Area

Photovoltaic (PV) industries are continuously trying to improve the module performance with the adoption of newer cell technologies. Recently, bifacial passivated emitter rear contact (PERC) solar cell technology has entered the market to further improve the module performance through the absorption of the extra photons reflected from the background. This work is mainly focused on optimizing the rear side grid pattern of the bifacial PERC solar cells for improvement of the total output power gain.
