A solar battery cell and related methodology are provided which enable a TAB wire to be accurately connected to an intended position, thus allowing a possible increase in manufacturing costs to be suppressed. The solar battery cell can include a substrate, a plurality of finger electrodes formed on a light receiving surface of the substrate, and a back surface electrode on a back surface of the substrate, the back surface electrode to be connected to a plurality of finger electrodes on an adjacent cell by applying a first TAB wire via a conductive adhesive, wherein the back surface electrode has omitted portions arranged to define at least one alignment marking indicative of a position where the first TAB wire is to be applied, the at least one alignment marking having a width less than a width of said first TAB wire.
