Large Area Flexible PV Modules Show Equivalent c-Si Performance
SANTA CLARA, Calif. - Californer -- MiaSolé, the leading flexible thin-film solar solution provider, announced that the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE has independently confirmed an 18.64% aperture area efficiency on a commercial size flexible PV module (aperture area 1.08m2). The cells and record module were made using the MiaSolé production equipment in Santa Clara, California.
"This latest achievement in the flexible thin-film solar module performance is a testament to MiaSole's advantages of performing research and development at the manufacturing scale," said Dr. Atiye Bayman, CTO of MiaSolé. "Rapid improvements in process development can be realized showing the extendibility of our Roll Coater technology for our customers."
