Abstract: A PV laminate and methods of assembly are provided. The PV cells of exemplary PV laminates may comprise a shingled linear array of PV cells where one or more spacers are employed near the connections between adjacent PV cells of the linear array. These spacers can serve to reduce stresses during assembly of the PV laminate and may be later substantially subsumed in encapsulant once assembly of the PV laminate is completed.

Abstract: A string of solar cells is disclosed. The sides of the solar cells have a corrugated shape which forms an opening when the solar cells are arranged in a shingled manner. The solar cells are electrically connected in series by a ribbon that passes through the opening. A wire mesh used to decrease solar cell resistance is also disclosed.
