Abstract: A solar cell module and a method for the production thereof, are used in particular in the field of concentrating solar technology. The solar cell module has a large number of two-dimensionally disposed solar cells. These solar cells are applied on a substrate which is coated with a metal layer on the surface orientated towards the solar cells. The metal layer is thereby structured in such a manner that it is subdivided into individual two-dimensional portions which are assigned respectively to one solar cell. The metal layer in each of the portions has two regions which are electrically insulated from each other, the first region extending under the assigned solar cell and contacting the latter in an electrically conductive manner. The second region is likewise connected to the other electrical contact of the solar cell.

Abstract: The invention relates to an open concentrator system for solar radiation comprising a hollow mirror and a photovoltaic module comprising a plurality of solar cells disposed in the focus of said hollow mirror, the photovoltaic module being encapsulated by a housing. The housing is thereby configured such that it has a transparent cover at least in the region of the incident radiation reflected by the hollow mirror and such that this transparent cover is at a spacing from photovoltaic module, i.e. is situated in the cone of the incident radiation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a solar cell module comprising at least two assemblies (SCA) which are connected to each other and have solar cells and also a module base plate comprising an electrically conductive carrier structure and a rear-side plate which is electrically insulated at least on the side orientated towards the carrier structure. The assembly comprising the solar cell is thereby particularly small with respect to dimensioning, which leads to low material consumption of heat sink material, e.g. copper and aluminium, and hence enables particularly economical production.
