More Detail
Because PowerFilmÆ integrated solar panels (thin film on plastic) are developed and manufactured with a proprietary roll process, by Iowa Thin Film Technologies, they are truly rollable unlike other thin film technologies that are only somewhat flexible. PowerFilmÆ solar panels are all monolithically integrated which eliminates the need for damage-prone manual connections of individual solar cells. PowerFilmÆ is made of silicon, a natural resource in abundant supply. PowerFilmÆ is Cadmium Free, unlike some other solar technologies, and performs well in diverse environments, including hot sun, and does not suffer from wasted over-voltage.
PowerFilmÆ products are ultra rollable because they are manufactured on a roll up to 2400 feet long, using the proprietary roll-to-roll manufacturing technology platform of Iowa Thin Film Technologies. Iowa Thin Film Technologies is the first and only company in the world selling solar products manufactured on a true roll-to-roll process using a plastic substrate.
PowerFilmÆ products are monolithically integrated which eliminates the need for damage-prone manual connections of individual solar cells. PowerFilmÆ products are constructed using a durable polymer (plastic) substrate.
Several features enable easy integration: Paper thin low profile; Ultra flexibility allows conformity to shapes; Complete product design eliminates need for unsightly bolt-on frames.
Integrated with a fabric backing for enhanced product functionality.
Constructed using a proprietary combination of thin and lightweight materials.
Cadmium Free! (Other solar technologies such as CIS, CIGS, and CdTe contain cadmium which is considered an extremely toxic metal by the Department of Labor.) If comparing products, check to be sure they are Cadmium Free. Primary element used in PowerFilmÆ is silicon, a natural resource in abundant supply.
Durable, ultra-rollable and paper-thin, these amazing marine-grade Powerfilm panels can be fully rolled up. Perfect for applications where extreme flexibility is important, or where a very thin profile is needed. Powerfilm panels can be walked on and are suitable for adhering to a firm surface using a PVA glue.
Integrated with a fabric backing for enhanced product functionality these panels perform well in diverse environments, including hot sun.
