HYET Solar, a relatively new company founded by Rombout Swanborn, recently bought all assets of Helianthos from Nuon. The company plans to further develop Helianthos’ technology with a team of 15 to 20 employees. HYET advised that its long term goal is to eventually bring the Helianthos flexible solar cell foil to market on a large scale.
Nuon noted that the auctioning of the individual parts of the Helianthos business had already been completed when a final agreement was reached with HYET Solar. Nuon had reserved the right of allotment after auctioning the businesses’ assets in order to keep the possibility of re-launching Helianthos.
