Abstract:

The project consisted of taking SunPower solar cells, cutting them down to a size small enough to produce a tile like structure, making electrical contact to the back side of these cells then interconnecting the cells together to produce a photovoltatic array. The Phase I contract was broken down into 5 parts a summary of each these parts is listed below.
