Cell Layout

The customer’s requirement to have certain transparency and at the same time a maximum yield was achieved by leaving estimated distances between the cells. And it was really an aesthetically excellent choice!

Bifacial

In situations with reflected light from the cell, it is always a good idea to consider using bifacial cells for the maximum generated energy. It is particularly evident in various railing systems, e.g., balconies and carports.
