Abstract
Provided are flexible photovoltaic modules having header structures for protecting, reinforcing, and sealing edges formed by sealing sheets of the modules. A flexible module may include one or more header structures. In certain embodiments, two header structures are provided on the same edge or two opposite edges of the module. A header structure may enclose a portion of the edge or the entire edge. A header structure may be a sleeve enclosing an edge formed by two sealing sheets. In other embodiment, in which an edge is formed by only one shorter sealing sheet, a header structure may extend over this edge. A header structure may enclose one or more electrical leads protruding from a sealed space formed by the sealing sheets. These electrical leads may be connected to conductive elements provided within the header structure and used for establishing electrical connections to other components of the photovoltaic array.
