Photovoltaic module with full utilization of surface area

A photovoltaic module comprising: (i) three or more substrates (1, 2, 3) arranged in a closed-spaced parallel relationship to one another, the substrates comprising: a center substrate (2) having first and second faces; a first outer substrate (1) having an inner and outer face, wherein the inner face and the first face of the center substrate are juxtaposed; and a second outer substrate (3) having an inner and outer face, wherein the inner face and the second face of the center substrate are juxtaposed, (ii) front photovoltaic devices (A, B, C) are formed between the first outer substrate (1) and the first face of the center substrate (2), (iii) connecting and/or dividing method (11) are placed between at least one pair of the front devices, and (iv) rear photovoltaic devices (D, E) are formed between the second outer substrate (3) and the second face of the center substrate (2), characterized by: (v) the front and rear photovoltaic devices are offset in such a way that connecting and dividing methods (11) of the front devices (A, B, C) oppose the active photovoltaic regions of the rear devices (D, E).
