| 20100101634 | THIN PROFILE SOLAR PANEL ROOF TILE - The present invention is directed toward apparatuses, systems and methods for solar panels capable of rooftop installation. In some embodiments, a low profile solar panel is provided, comprising: a solar laminate; and a flexible material sheet adhered to the solar laminate, wherein the flexible material sheet is configured to operate as a frame that supports and houses the solar laminate. In some such embodiments, the low profile solar panel further comprises a secondary sheet, wherein the secondary sheet is disposed on an edge formed by adhering the flexible material sheet to the solar laminate. | 04-29-2010 |
| 20100294341 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR FRAMELESS BUILDING INTEGRATED PHOTOVOLTAIC PANEL - The present invention is directed toward apparatus and methods for solar panels capable of rooftop installation. In some embodiments, a low profile solar laminate is provided, comprising: a base layer; a photovoltaic layer; a semi-rigid panel; an ultraviolet resistant layer; wherein a first adhesive adheres the base layer to the semi-rigid panel, a second adhesive adheres the semi-rigid panel to the photovoltaic layer, and a third adhesive adheres the ultraviolet resistant layer to the photovoltaic layer. | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110240337 | INTERCONNECTS FOR PHOTOVOLTAIC PANELS - Various embodiments of the invention provide an interconnect designed to be placed between layers of a photovoltaic laminate, and that has built-in in-plane stress relief features. In accordance with various embodiments, the interconnect, once implemented into a photovoltaic laminate, can withstand at least 200 temperature cycles, as is required by certain certifying bodies, without suffering failure. According to one embodiment of the present invention, an interconnect is provided for connecting a first photovoltaic cell to the bus array or a second photovoltaic cell within a photovoltaic laminate, the interconnect comprising: a single conductive wire having a cross-section sufficient for placement between layers of a photovoltaic laminate; wherein the single conductive wire comprises a stress-relief feature, and the stress-relief feature enables the interconnect to maintain a connection between the first photovoltaic cell and the bus array or the second photovoltaic cell while absorbing stress induced by a change in position of the first photovoltaic cell relative to a position of the bus array or the second photovoltaic cell. | 10-06-2011 |

| 20120080078 | PHOTOVOLTAIC MODULES AND METHODS OF MANUFACTURING - Photovoltaic (PV) crystalline silicon modules and methods of manufacturing wherein the modules contain a non-glass front sheet, upper and lower encapsulate layers, a PV cell layer, an insulating sheet, and a structural back plane comprising an aluminum composite. The front sheet can be comprised of ETFE, the encapsulate layers comprise EVA, and the back plane preferably comprises APA. This particular configuration results in a lightweight PV module that still retains a high power density, and can be readily installed onto rooftops without traditional heavy racking. The PV module may be adhered to the roof using a double sided pressure sensitive adhesive or heat welded. | 04-05-2012 |
