Sumario:A technology of thin layer photovoltaic modules with dimensions of 65 x 80 mm2 based on CdS-CdTe heterojunctions prepared via the quasi-closed volume technique was developed. The modules were made on a single glass plate; each element was positioned along the given plate so that the resulting module contains nine solar cells with an area of 3 cm2. The design of the module made it possible to study the energy parameters of each solar cell as well as the entire module. The study of the photovoltaic module based on CdS-CdTe heterojunctions showed the following parameters: short circuit current Isc = 270 mA; open circuit voltage Ucd = 0.786 V; FF = 0.46, power discharged in the load Pmax ≈ 100 mW, and efficiency η ≈ 8.2% at the radiation power of 53 mW/cm2.
