Abstract

See full text

Glass solar panels are provided for producing the panels, which convert light into electricity for storage or powering electrical loads. The panels can also be used as architectural building elements. Included in the panels are electricity generating solar layers that are deposited between bus bars and on conductive coatings that have been previously deposited on the panels. The electricity is transmitted externally by metallic tabs that have been deposited on the bus bars. Subsequently, the tabs are electrically attached to glazing channels, which are electrical connection means for storage and loads. The bus bars, which preferably are copper, are deposited on the coated glass through a novel circularly rotating or inline heating head and mask apparatus. Depending on the application, this assemblage could be configured as insulated glass (IG) units, laminated glass panels, or panel combinations.
