The invention relates to an apparatus, system and method for a two-axis of curvature solar panel with doubly-curved solar cells. The solar panel comprises substrate and superstrate preforms having two-axis of curvature geometry and at least one rigid layer. The preforms may comprise one or more strengthened glass and/or polymer layers. A core comprising lower and upper encapsulant layers sandwiching a solar cell array is disposed between substrate and superstrate preforms forming a lamination stack. The solar cells may be tacked to the lower encapsulant layer. The preforms may be formed by flat lamination followed by thermoforming. The curved solar panel may comprise a flange suitable for assisting the assembly process and be made of materials with disparate mechanical and thermal properties. A method is provided wherein preforms and core layers are assembled and laminated, and post-processing that may include trimming and edge sealing.
