[0002] A bifacial solar cell module is a type of solar cell module that can convert light energy into electrical energy on both the front and back sides. When sunlight shines on a bifacial module, part of the light will be reflected by the surrounding environment to the back of the bifacial module. This part of light is absorbed by the cell, which contributes to the photocurrent and efficiency of the cell, thereby further improving the power generation gain of the module.

[0003] At present, with the increase of bifacial solar cell modules on the market, and most of them are N-type modules or P-type high-efficiency modules, the limitations of the testing methods make it difficult to accurately test the performance of solar cell modules, making it difficult for users to make correct evaluations.
