Abstract
A solar textile formed of a weave of a first tape structure and a second tape structure. In one embodiment, the ratio of the number of the first tape structure to the second tape structure is three to one. The first tape structure includes a photovoltaic (PV) conversion layer and an electrically conductive substrate. The second tape structure includes a PV conversion layer, a first electrically conductive layer, a non-conducting insulation layer and a second electrically conductive layer. The first tape structure and the second tape structure are in contact with one another so that the electrically conductive substrate of the first tape structure is in contact with the PV conversion layer of the second tape structure.
