Semi-Flexible Solar Technology

PowerFilm uses high-efficiency SunPower solar cells to better serve permanent and semi-permanent applications where power density, ruggedness, and cost are critical requirements.

Custom shapes and sizes range from 20-165W of solar. Panels can be connected in parallel to quickly create 1kW+ portable solar arrays. 

With integrated charge controllers available, PowerFilm’s semi-flexible crystalline solutions can connect directly to 12V, 24V, and other battery systems.
