Developer of plastic solar cells, Solarmer Energy, has again broken the world record for the efficiency of plastic solar cells. The company's latest efficiency of 7.6% has been independently certified by Newport Corp.'s Technology and Applications Center's Photovoltaic (TAC-PV) Lab.
Solarmer is currently developing flexible, transparent plastic solar panels which generate low cost clean energy from the sun. These solar panels will transform the renewable energy industry, because they have the potential to drive the cost down to 12-15 cents/kWh and less than $1/Watt. This is the first solar technology capable of generating electricity on par with conventional fuel costs. They plan to target three major applications areas for plastic solar panels: consumer & portable electronics, building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), and smart fabrics.Cart
