Definitions

  • the invention relates to a solar module and a method for producing a solar module.
  • Photovoltaic layer systems for the direct conversion of solar radiation into electrical energy are well known.
  • the materials and the arrangement of the layers are coordinated so that incident radiation from one or more semiconducting layers with the highest possible radiation yield is converted directly into electrical current.
  • Photovoltaic and extensive coating systems are called solar cells.
  • Solar cells contain semiconductor material in all cases. The largest known efficiencies of more than 20% are achieved with high-performance solar cells made of monocrystalline, polycrystalline or microcrystalline silicon or gallium arsenide. More than 80% of the currently installed solar cell power is based on crystalline silicon. Thin film solar cells require carrier substrates to provide sufficient mechanical strength.
  • thin film systems with amorphous, micromorphous or polycrystalline silicon, cadmium telluride (CdTe), gallium arsenide (GaAs), copper indium (gallium) selenide sulfide (Cu (ln, Ga) (S, Se) 2 ), copper-zinc-tin-sulfo-selenide (CZTS) and organic semiconductors are particularly suitable for solar cells.
  • CdTe cadmium telluride
  • GaAs gallium arsenide
  • Cu (ln, Ga) (S, Se) 2 copper-zinc-tin-sulfo-selenide
  • organic semiconductors are particularly suitable for solar cells.
  • the pentenary semiconductor Cu (In, Ga) (S, Se) 2 belongs to the group of chalcopyrite semiconductors, which are often referred to as CIS (copper indium diselenide or sulfide) or CIGS (copper indium gallium diselenide, copper indium gallium disulfide or copper indium gallium disulfoselenide).
  • CIS copper indium diselenide or sulfide

  • the circuit of solar cells is permanently protected from environmental influences in known weather-resistant structures.
  • two slices of low-iron soda-lime glass and adhesion-promoting polymer films are connected to the solar cells to form a weather-resistant solar module.
  • the solar modules can be integrated into a circuit of several solar modules via junction boxes or connection housings.
  • the circuit of solar modules is connected via known power electronics with the public utility network or a self-sufficient electrical power supply.
  • Flat roofs of warehouses or industrial plants have a large, exposed and unpaved surface. They are therefore particularly well suited for the installation of photovoltaic systems.

  • Solar modules according to the prior art in which the solar cells are laminated between two slices of soda-lime glass, have a high basis weight of, for example, 18 kg / m 2 . They are therefore not suitable for mounting on flat roofs with low load capacity.
  • windscreens made of thin glass or plastics are usually combined with carrier layers made of a lightweight but nevertheless warp-resistant material.
  • the front screen and the carrier layer must be sufficiently impermeable to moisture or water vapor in order to protect the solar cells and bus bars inside the solar module against corrosion.
  • Suitable materials for the carrier layers are, for example, glass fiber reinforced plastics or metal layers.
  • US 2010/00651 16 A1 discloses a thin-glass solar module with a basis weight of 5 kg / m 2 to 10 kg / m 2 .
  • the thin-glass solar module comprises a carrier layer, solar cells and a front pane of very thin, chemically hardened glass.
