The German Association for Electrical, Electronic and Information Technologies (VDE) has certified the back-contact module developed jointly by Solland Solar and SCHOTT Solar.
According to the companies, this product is the first fully certified, mass-manufactured module whose solar cells are manufactured with metal wrap-through (MWT) technology and interconnected by a special back-contact foil located on the backside.
Solland Solar will begin marketing the initial volumes produced during pilot manufacturing under the name Solland Sunweb. The companies also plan to develop back-contact technology further.
