Abstract

Currently, the solar market primarily uses high-power and high-density solar module technologies, such as shingled modules and multi-busbar (MBB) modules. Shingled modules improve the module output by dividing solar cells and bonding them with electrically conductive adhesives (ECAs), whereas MBB modules vertically scrub solar cells in a half-cut shape and connect them with multiple wires. These high-density solar module technologies can be maximized through the layout and wiring design. Therefore, in this study, we designed and simulated each module type and presented the appropriate layout and wiring designs. The solar cells used were M6 (166 mm × 166 mm), and the area was designed considering the width of the solar layer. For the shingled modules, the overlap and number of junctions were varied, and the size of the cover glass used in the actual production was considered. The MBB modules were designed based on the number of junctions and diodes.
