Sp Technology Applied
SP Consumables
SP will concentrate initially on the Consumer Electronics market, manufacturing a DSSC PV solar module which can be adopted in a wide variety of applications, including a mobile phone charger for the developing world where the requirement for off grid technologies are a necessity.
In conjunction with the CE division SolarPrint’s intention is to aggressively pursue the development of its BIPV and APV applications to include the development of glass facades (external and internal walling) and integrated components for the next generation of green vehicles.
Advantages
The main advantages of SolarPrint’s DSSC over existing PV technologies include:
• SP devices generates more energy in diffuse light (both indoors and outdoors).
• Does not suffer from angular dependence of sunlight.
• DSSC can generate more power over extended periods of time than competing silicon technology.
• Efficiency of DSSC does not degrade with increasing temperature.
• SP panels allow for form factor which allows for flexible, thin and light weight modules.
• Uses cheap and eco-friendly nanomaterials.
