The sun must be utilized efficiently

The project is developing a nano-structured high efficiency solar cell. Unique production process ensures that costs will be competitive compared to cells with similar efficiency.
Project description

Each formed by a perfect semiconductor crystal, known from the IT sector, billions of nanostructures (nanoflakes) will be used to develop a PV cell capable of increasing the efficiency ratio from the approx. 20% generated by conventional cells to approx. 30%, thus reducing the price of PV generated electricity.
