The Evolution of #Solar_Cell_Busbars: From 4BB to OBB ⚡️⚡️ Technology in the renewable energy sector is constantly evolving, and solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is no exception. A great example of this evolution can be seen in the design of solar cells, specifically with busbar technology. The image above clearly illustrates this fascinating journey: Busbars are the thicker, visible grid lines on a solar cell. Their primary job is to collect the current from the cell's finer grid lines, known as fingers, and connect the cells in series. Fingers are the thinner lines that collect the photogenerated carriers (electrons). Over the past decade, solar cell technology has progressed from just 4 or 5 busbars (4BB/5BB) in the early 2010s to the current state-of-the-art Omni-Busbar (OBB) technology. This advancement has led to significant improvements in efficiency and reliability. As you can see, the technology has moved to using more and more busbars and then has moved away from them entirely.
