Objective
The present project aims to develop a new process for the automatic assembling of photovoltaic modules. This process guarantees a higher production rate, the possibility to work with large solar cells and lower temperatures, and a minor stress for the cells compared to the present hand-soldered scheme. The latter point gives the opportunity to employ thin film hetero-structures such as mc-Si/x-Si, a-Si/x-Si, TCO/x-Si, which Sanyo has demonstrate to be good structures for high efficiency cells (HIT cells). It will be also interesting to switch from the traditional p-type substrate to n-type one in order to eliminate degradation effects due to Boron-Oxygen pairs. It is expected to achieve heterostructure cells with >15% average efficiency with scrinprinted process and 17% in pilot line with buried contact process.

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
