 A comprehensive line of low cost bio-based films and resins to replace higher cost solar cell components: |
BioSolar is developing a comprehensive line of bio-based films and resins for solar cell manufacturers, based on its breakthrough technology. There are primarily two kinds of solar cells in the market today: traditional crystalline silicon (c-Si) and thin film solar cells. While thin film technology promises lower cost and more efficient manufacturing, it still represents a very small part of the solar cell market. Traditional c-Si solar cells command 94% of the market today while thin film and other non-c-Si solar cells are projected to grow to only 8% by 2010.
Our product roadmap is designed to align BioSolar with market opportunities. Whether solar cells are produced using crystalline silicon, amorphous silicon or other solar technologies, BioSolar can help reduce the cost per watt through the use of its lower cost bio-based components.
