Thin Film Solar Roof Panels

Solar laminates manufactured by united solar.

Thin film solar roof panels.

Thin film solar panels have a broader spectrum absorption range that includes more infrared and even some ultraviolet light. The panels are the highest efficiency flexible thin film product on the market today with 16 cell efficiency. They are made to fit standard standing seam metal roofing panels. A thin film solar cell is a second generation solar cell that is made by depositing one or more thin layers or thin film of photovoltaic material on a substrate such as glass plastic or metal.

Based on hanergy s miasolé high efficiency thin film cells the hantile is the ultimate roof application of thin film. Thin film pv solar laminates are light weight and easy to install. Flexible thin film solar has been around for a number of years. The lightweight and flexible solar panels of today have efficiencies that rival that of traditional rigid silicon panels while their flexible format and non penetrating peel and stick installation make them ideal for a wide variety of applications unsuitable for heavy silicon panels.

Thin film solar cells are commercially used in several technologies including cadmium telluride copper indium gallium diselenide and amorphous thin film silicon. Solopower is advancing the possibilities of solar power. Thin film power to the max. The end result is a flat system that perfectly follows the curvilinear shape of the roof and on top of producing clean energy is perfectly waterproof and aesthetically pleasing.

Thin film solar panels helps achieve the true intent and essence of using solar panels as they are cost effective produce efficient power supply don t emit ods etc. Thin film solar panel manufacturer sunflare has released a new module that nestles in between seams of a metal standing seam roof the powerfit 20. The 60 w cigs panels come with butyl adhesive backing that peel and stick to the metal roof. Miasole s flex 02 series module is a cigs based flexible thin film pv module that provides high power density for many types of roof applications.

Film thickness varies from a few nanometers to tens of micrometers much thinner than thin film s rival technology the conventional first. Thin film pv solar laminates do not require any penetrations to be made to the roof and can be easily attached to standing seam panels using a revolutionary peel and stick method. For example cigs takes in sunlight ranging from 400nm 1200nm and cdte absorbs sunlight from 250nm 1750nm. We re maximizing the performance of our proprietary cigs thin film lightweight photovoltaic lpv modules to deliver optimized large scale roof top solutions.
