In recent years SCHMID has developed several equipment for the production of bifacial solar cells. This cell type absorbs light and generates electricity on both surfaces and achieves up to 30 % higher yield than conventional cells, if suitably installed in open areas or flat roofs.
SCHMID’s Bifacial Cell Technology
- Bifacial cell looks similar from both sides
- Front: collecting emitter / Back: back-surface-field (BSF)
- Grid-shaped electrodes on front and back
- Can be interconnected using standard stringer technology (5BB or multiwire)
- Module rear side: transparent back-sheet or glass
- Rear light collection increases energy yield up to 30 %
Bifacial cells can be either adapted for monocrystalline material (PERC) or for multicrystalline material (PERT).
