3M showcases flexible CIGS thin-film at Solar Power International
3M showcased a flexible CIGS thin-film on plastic PV product at this year's Solar Power International show. We interviewed Ellen from 3M about this exciting new product. Video below.
Some information about the product:
- 3M is currently working with Solar Power and numerous other CIGS manufacturers to produce total encapsulating packages to enable durable flexible CIGS thin-film photovoltaics.
- 3M is currently focused on the flexible front-side barrier, which the company says has been a challenging aspect. The barrier has to be optically clear, weatherable, and have a low moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR).
- The flexible CIGS thin-film product is made from a floor polymer, so that it is very weatherable and scratch resistant.
- In terms of installation cost, 3M's CIGS thin-film can be easily integrated into other building materials to lower labor cost.
- Why CIGS thin-film as opposed to another thin-film technology? CIGS tends to have higher efficiencies, usually 10% and above.
Although their CIGS thin-film product is not yet on the market, 3M is giving out prototype samples, and you should contact the company if you are interested.

Definitely believe that which you stated. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the internet the easiest factor to be mindful of. I say to you, I certainly get irked whilst other people think about worries that they plainly do not recognise about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest and defined out the whole thing with no need side effect , folks could take a signal. Will likely be again to get more. Thank you
fantastic points altogether, you simply won a logo new reader. What might you recommend in regards to your put up that you made some days in the past? Any positive?
Useful info. Fortunate me I discovered your site unintentionally, and I'm shocked why this accident didn't came about in advance! I bookmarked it.
