ITN's
Advanced Photovoltaics research provides
PV panels for space-bound applications.
Providing efficient and lightweight power
for satellites and other spacecraft,
ITN's solar materials have the best value
and durability to be found.
The Advanced Photovoltaics Group continues
to engage in research aimed at creating
new techniques and processes for harvesting
solar energy. Based on Copper Indium
Gallium diSelenide (CIGS) technology,
ITN's thin-film photovoltaics have several
advantages over traditional solar energy
technologies. These advantages include:
- High-efficiency
- Tough & flexible material
- Light weight
- Variable form factors
- Mass-producible using thin-film roll-to-roll
fabrication methods
- Low cost
ITN's Advanced Thin-Film
Flexible CIGS Photovoltaics have
a wide variety of applications in the
marketplace.
