SolarPrint has formally introduced its dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) technology, which is combined with wireless sensors to yield better efficiencies on commercial applications. Per the company, its new DSSC technology imitates photosynthesis and has the ability to collect ambient or diffused light, despite the incident angle, which allows for a higher power output.
“The future of energy management within the built environment lies with the next generation of wireless sensors which can harvest and store energy without the need for wires,” said Dr. Mazhar Bari, CEO and co-founder of SolarPrint. “Our technology takes energy harvesting to the next level, converting even the lowest levels of light in an indoor space into energy. Our solution will propel energy technologies further than ever, with the potential to profoundly save on energy costs.”
