Abstract:Reducing costs per Wp is a major goal for the crystalline silicon solar cell industry in order to compete with electricity production costs from conventional energy resources. The MWT (metal wrap through) solar cell is a promising concept to reduce production costs by increasing efficiencies at the cell and module level significantly, without great additional effort. At the cell level, a significant efficiency gain of the MWT cell concept compared to standard solar cells is observable, mainly due to higher ach… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
