In addition, adjacent two photovoltaic modules can be connected through the connection terminals 504. Assembling the photovoltaic curtain wall system on the building wall, the exhaust holes in the columns and crossbeams can accelerate the volatilization of the heat generated by the photovoltaic modules, achieving the purpose of cooling, thereby avoiding local thermal stress concentration on the photovoltaic modules, generating hot spots, ensuring the normal power generation of the photovoltaic modules, and preventing faults and potential safety hazards.
