Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of photovoltaic cell technology, and relates to a three-terminal stacked battery string, photovoltaic module and photovoltaic component. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous growth of global energy demand and the increasing severity of environmental pollution, the development and utilization of clean energy has become an international consensus. Solar energy, as a clean and renewable energy source, has enormous potential for development and utilization. Solar cells, as devices that directly convert sunlight into electricity, have been widely researched and applied in recent years.

[0003] Crystalline silicon solar cells are currently the most mature type of solar cell, mainly including monocrystalline silicon cells and polycrystalline silicon cells. Although they have reached commercial scale, their manufacturing process remains relatively complex, often requiring high temperatures and high-purity raw materials, resulting in high costs. Most importantly, their actual highest photoelectric conversion efficiency has reached 26.8%, close to their theoretical limit of 29.4%, making it difficult to achieve higher levels of light energy utilization.

[0004] Perovskite solar cells are an emerging type of solar cell with unique physical and chemical properties. Their fabrication process is relatively simple, and they have low cost and energy consumption. However, their large-area requirements and long-term stability issues, such as easy degradation under environmental factors like humidity, temperature, and light, limit their further application and development.

[0005] To overcome the limitations of single-type solar cells, researchers have proposed perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells. By combining perovskite and crystalline silicon cells in series or parallel, and utilizing their complementary spectral responses, perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells can fully utilize different bands of the solar spectrum, thereby significantly improving the overall photoelectric conversion efficiency to over 33%.

[0006] The connection structure of perovskite and crystalline silicon tandem solar cells has a significant impact on the performance of the cells. The two-terminal structure is the simplest connection method, where a perovskite cell and a crystalline silicon cell are connected in series to form a single voltage output. The two-terminal structure has only one input and one output terminal, i.e., two electrodes. Although the circuit design of the two-terminal structure is simple and easy to implement, it requires strict current matching; otherwise, it will affect the overall performance, leading to current waste and reduced overall efficiency. Furthermore, it is prone to voltage drop, especially in series connections, where poor resistance and contact can cause voltage drops. More importantly, the stability of the two-terminal structure is greatly affected by the stability of the perovskite material; environmental degradation of the perovskite material can affect the overall performance of the cell.

[0007] To address this, a three-terminal structure was further proposed. This structure connects the perovskite and crystalline silicon cells independently, each with an independent output terminal. An external circuit then combines the outputs of the two cells. The three-terminal structure has three electrodes: two input terminals and one common output terminal. This structure allows the perovskite and crystalline silicon cells to operate independently without requiring perfect matching, improving system flexibility. The voltage output of the two cells can be adjusted via an external circuit, optimizing overall performance. Furthermore, it facilitates fault isolation; even if one cell fails, the other can continue operating.

[0008] Therefore, developing and researching new three-terminal perovskite-silicon tandem solar cells is of great practical significance for promoting their large-scale commercial application. Utility Model Content

[0059] Junction boxes 48 are independent junction boxes, each connecting a cable and a connector. Junction boxes 48 are installed at the lead-out holes of the back plate 47, leading out specific contact ends of the first and last stacked battery cells 10. Specifically, the other ends of the first external connecting strips connected to F1C, F1B, F2C, L1T, L1C, and L2T in the battery string 30 are led out and connected to the corresponding junction boxes 48.
