Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs): the 3rd generation of PV technologies

Organic Photovoltaics (OPVs), the 3rd generation of PV technologies, have undergone significant progress during the last decade boosted by the introduction of Roll-to-Roll (R2R) processing applied on plastics with any custom shape and size and unlimited coloring. OPVs on plastics focus on both existing, and new markets.

EffiBUILDING has increased the attention about this ongoing technology due to his potentiality. Heliatek, Infinitypv and OET have developed interested OPVs. An important OPV prototype is the Beautiful Light Project developed by Armor.

These Organic Photovoltaics products and Armor prototype are consultable in the PV modules category.
