PHOTOVOLTAIC STRING

A photovoltaic string includes a first photovoltaic cell; a second photovoltaic cell; a first metal connector, the first photovoltaic cell being disposed between the second photovoltaic cell and the first metal connector, each of the first and second photovoltaic cells including a first face and a second face opposite to the first face, the first faces each including collection fingers extending parallel to each other, the first photovoltaic cell being interconnected to the second photovoltaic cell, the second face of the first photovoltaic cell partially covering the first face of the second photovoltaic cell, and first connection elements disposed on the first face of the first photovoltaic cell and extending beyond the first photovoltaic cell, up to the first metal connector, wherein the first connection elements electrically connect at least part of the collection fingers of the first face of the first photovoltaic cell to the first metal connector.
