Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a solar cell module having a solar cell element and a solar cell module precursor.
- transparent resin (sealing resin) is distribute
- the sealing resin is a soft resin and may be accompanied by a large molding flow.
- stacking a solar cell element it becomes easy to produce the position shift of a solar cell element, and it becomes difficult to position a solar cell element with respect to a light reflection plate accurately.
- the positioning accuracy of the solar cell element with respect to the light reflection plate is poor, the light collection efficiency of sunlight on the solar cell element is lowered, and as a result, the power generation efficiency is lowered.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a solar cell module and a solar cell module driver that can improve the positioning accuracy of the solar cell element with respect to the light reflector.
- the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a solar cell module comprising a solar cell element and a concavo-convex light reflecting plate that is disposed on the back side of the solar cell element and reflects sunlight incident from the front side of the solar cell element.
- a second resin sheet is disposed so as to sandwich the solar cell element between the second step of arranging the solar cell element on the opposite surface, the second resin sheet made of the sealing resin, and the first resin sheet.
- a third step of laminating the solar cell element is disposed so as to sandwich the solar cell element between the second step of arranging the solar cell element on the opposite surface, the second resin sheet made of the sealing resin, and the first resin sheet.
- a precursor is formed by bonding a first resin sheet made of a sealing resin for fixing a solar cell element to a light reflecting plate.
- the solar cell element is disposed on the surface of the first resin sheet opposite to the light reflecting plate, and the solar cell element is sandwiched between the second resin sheet made of the sealing resin and the first resin sheet.
- the large deformation flow of the sealing resin is less likely to occur. Therefore, since the positional deviation of the solar cell element is less likely to occur, the positioning accuracy of the solar cell element with respect to the light reflecting plate can be improved.
- production of the defect accompanying the crack of a solar cell element can be prevented.
- the light reflecting plate is formed by adhering a thermoplastic resin film forming a light reflecting surface for reflecting sunlight to a plastic substrate.
- the accuracy of the uneven shape of the first resin sheet can be sufficiently maintained in the precursor. Therefore, when the solar cell element is laminated, the positional deviation of the solar cell element with respect to the light reflecting plate is further less likely to occur. Moreover, the optical condensing efficiency can be kept high.
- the precursor is formed so that the crosslinking rate of the sealing resin is 30% or less.
- the cross-linking reaction of the sealing resin proceeds evenly. Further, the bonding strength between the first resin sheet and the other sealing resin is kept high. For this reason, generation
- the solar cell module precursor of the present invention includes an uneven light reflecting plate and a resin sheet made of a sealing resin that is bonded to the light reflecting plate and fixes the solar cell element. The surface opposite to the plate is exposed.
- a solar cell element is disposed on the surface of the resin sheet opposite to the light reflecting plate, and further made of a sealing resin. Another resin sheet is placed on the solar cell element, and the solar cell element is laminated in that state.
- the positioning accuracy of the solar cell element with respect to the light reflecting plate can be improved. Therefore, sunlight can be efficiently collected in the solar cell element, and the power generation efficiency can be improved.
