Ascent Solar reveals new BIPV solution: WaveSol

Ascent Solar has launched the WaveSol series, the new five metre long CIGS modules, designed to complement the company's current portfolio of building integrated (BIPV) and building applied (BAPV) photovoltaic products. WaveSol WSLB 3200-190 is available with large format (5.0m X 0.6m), high power (320W), high voltage (up to 190V) and high specific power (50W/kg).

Ascent Solar President and CEO Farhad Moghadam said, "We are proud of our heritage and unwavering dedication to flexible CIGS solar module manufacturing. We intend to maintain our leading position as the pre-eminent manufacturer of flexible, lightweight CIGS modules for BIPV/BAPV solutions by translating advances in production into world-leading modules that will enable the proliferation of solar while making it a cost effective solution. We look forward to showcasing this module to the world during the Solar Power International convention next month, as well as planning several beta site installations with existing customers."
