NOVELTY - The method involves applying (302) a first conductive material to a transparent, non-photovoltaic laminate sheet to form a first grid portion. A second conductive material is applied (304) to a photovoltaic material to form a second grid portion and the second conductive material is dried (308). The photovoltaic material and the laminate sheet are laminated (312) together, after drying the second conductive material. The laminate sheet is press-fitted (310) to the photovoltaic material after the step of drying and before the step of laminating.    USE - Method for providing conductive collection grid to photovoltaic cell.    ADVANTAGE - The high tolerance is exhibited to rapid heating and cooling and to large thermal gradients, low shipping costs, greater potential for high performance and a greater ease of installation. The processing step sets the grid to allow bending and other manipulation of the laminate sheet without compromising the integrity of the applied grid. The reel to reel wrapping can be performed at relatively high tension, which is believed to scrape the surface of the partially set conductive grid and eventually to improve electrical contact between the grid and the photovoltaic material. The flexible modules of interconnected solar cells are protected from environmental elements while retaining their flexibility by lamination between a flexible transparent protective top and bottom layers. The cells or strings are protected from mechanical damage prior to module lamination. The number of interconnecting materials deposited following collection grid deposition is reduced, where the cell material could experience fewer, shorter or lower intensity thermal exposures.
