Abstract

A solar cell module according to an embodiment of the invention includes a plurality of solar cells each including a substrate, a first electrode current collector which is positioned at a first edge of a back surface of the substrate and extends in a first direction, and a second electrode current collector which is positioned at a second edge of the back surface of the substrate and extends in the first direction, a conductive adhesive film contacting a first electrode current collector of a first solar cell of the plurality of solar cells, or a second electrode current collector of a second solar cell adjacent to the first solar cell, or both, and an interconnector which contacts the conductive adhesive film and electrically connects the adjacent first and second solar cells to each other.
