The goal of this study is to examine how metallization (the design of the front and rear grids) influences solar cell performance and to predict an optimal design. To accomplish this, Griddler 2.5 PRO software was employed to simulate solar cells by varying the busbar number from 1 to 5 and the number of fingers from 60 to 130.

What is a solar busbar and how does it work? Conventional silicon solar cells are metalized with thin rectangular-shaped strips printed on the front and rear of a solar cell. These front and rear contact strips are referred to as busbars, or bus bars – the correct spelling is subject to nitpicking debates in the PV industry…
