Abstract

A method of and a system for assembling a Photovoltaic, PV, module having a plurality of stacked, aligned layers, wherein a sub-assembly is formed at least including a first layer comprised of a first fusible foil, and a second layer comprised of a plurality of PV cells. The sub-assembly is pre-heated at discrete locations, such that the layers thereof are fixated at such discrete locations. The sub-assembly and the other layers are staked in an aligned relationship, handled and transported for fusing and curing of the layers together in heating station so as to provide the laminated assembled PV module.
