     FIELD 
     The present invention relates to roof-integrated photovoltaic modules. More particularly, the present invention relates to roof-integrated photovoltaic modules with light-scattering encapsulants providing a non-uniform or randomized appearance, and roofing systems including such modules. 
     BACKGROUND 
     Photovoltaic modules can be placed on building roofs (e.g., residential roofs) to generate electricity. One obstacle to mass-market adoption of solar roofing is poor aesthetics. Standard rack-mounted photovoltaic (“PV”) systems have a very different appearance than traditional roofing materials (e.g., asphalt shingles, wooden shingles, slate shingles, etc.), which can draw unwanted attention. Even low-profile PV systems still receive poor aesthetic feedback from consumers.
