Transparent solar cells (TSCs) hold substantial potential as continuous energy generators, enabling their use in situations where conventional devices may not be feasible. However, research aimed at modularizing TSCs for the purpose of regulating overall voltage and current they produce, a critical step toward practical application, is still its nascent stages. In this study, we explored custom-designed, all-back-contact (ABC) configuration, which situates all electrical contacts on rear side, to create glass-like transparent crystalline silicon (
