Solar Panels Photovoltaic (PV)
Solar cells capture the
sun's energy and change it to electricity. Inside a solar panel, each cell
contains silicon, an element found in sand that absorbs sunlight. The
energy in this absorbed light produces a small electrical current. Metal
grids around the solar cells direct the currents into wires that lead to
the power controls.
The solar array is
comprised of one or more solar PV modules (solar panels) which convert
sunlight into clean solar electricity. PV is short for Photo voltaics,
which means electricity from light. The solar modules need to be mounted
facing the sun and avoiding shade for best results.
Panels typically
generate about 10 watts per square foot on a clear day. You'll need
about 10 square feet - or one typical photovoltaic module to
generate enough power for a 100 watt light bulb. Most cities in the
continental United States have about 5 hours of peak sunlight per day,
averaged over the entire year. Sunny, southern locations have more,
and cloudy northern locations have less.
PV History ->
We provide a wide variety of solar panels, inverters, and batteries
as well as other solar energy related items.
These accessories are professional
marine-grade components with connectors
that match the PowerFilm® Foldable and
Rollable Series output cord.
Ultra compact and ultra lightweight, the
PowerFilm® AA Foldable Solar Charger is
ideal for soldiers in the field. The
charger provides portable power for
charging AA rechargeable batteries. Once
unfolded, this charger automatically
begins charging. The charging lights
confirm if the batteries are charging or
fully charged. The specialized charging
circuitry provides highly effective
battery charging..

Military and Energencyy
Through various endeavors and
contracts with the military a group of
products were produced with the military
and strategic partners. These products
are made to fit the military’s needs and
specifications. Consumer versions of
some products are in production and
available for purchase through PowerFilm
or our strategic partners.
Rollable Solar Panels
Power Film® integrated solar panels
(thin film on plastic) are developed and
manufactured with a proprietary roll
process by PowerFilm Incorporated, they
are truly rollable unlike other thin
film technologies that are only somewhat
flexible. PowerFilm® solar panels are
all monolithically integrated which
eliminates the damage-prone manual
connections of individual solar cells.
PowerFilm® is made of silicon, a natural
resource in abundant supply. PowerFilm®
is Cadmium Free, unlike some other solar
technologies, and performs well in
diverse environments, including hot sun,
and does not suffer from wasted
over-voltage..
PowerFilm® products are ultra rollable
because they are manufactured on a roll
up to 2400 feet long, using the
proprietary roll-to-roll manufacturing
technology platform of PowerFilm
Incorporated. PowerFilm Incorporated is
the first and only company in the world
to sell solar products manufactured on a
true roll-to-roll process using a
plastic substrate..
PowerFilm® products are monolithically
integrated which eliminates the
damage-prone manual connections of
individual solar cells. PowerFilm®
products are constructed using a durable
polymer (plastic) substrate..
Several features enable easy
integration: Paper thin low profile;
Ultra flexibility allows conformity to
shapes; Complete product design
eliminates need for unsightly bolt-on
frames..
Integrated with a fabric backing for
enhanced product functionality..
Constructed using a proprietary
combination of thin and lightweight
materials..
Cadmium Free! (Other solar technologies
such as CIS, CIGS, and CdTe contain
cadmium which is considered an extremely
toxic metal by the Department of Labor.)
If comparing products, check to be sure
they are Cadmium Free. Primary element
used in PowerFilm® is silicon, a natural
resource in abundant supply.
