Summary of the 10th workshop on metallization and interconnection for crystalline silicon solar cells

The 10th edition of the Workshop on Metallization and Interconnection for Crystalline Silicon Solar Cells took place in November 2022, as a live event in Genk Belgium, but also including online participants. Despite various safety measures related to the Covid 19 pandemic, the event reached its goals of networking and of knowledge sharing in these technologically important fields. Scientific contributions were presented on various relevant topics including high throughput printing, electroplating, soldering and interconnector bonding. A common theme was the search towards metallization and interconnection solutions for next generation solar cell concepts that drastically reduce the consumption of metals that are limited in supply, notably silver, and are compatible with the extremely high output manufacturing scenarios of the anticipated Terawatt era. © 2022 Author(s).
