Powerfilm: The best solar company17 Apr 2011 13:42
Powerfilm (PFLM) is a great buying opportunity, it is a bargain. The company is trading at discount to cash, fully funded and with a unique PV technology. PowerFilm, Inc. develops and manufactures thin flexible solar modules.
Elements of the company's low-cost technology and manufacturing process include the use of:
- A durable, flexible plastic substrate
- Roll-to-roll manufacturing to minimize handling costs
- Amorphous silicon to avoid dependence on the silicon wafer market cycle
- Printed interconnection to automate the cell connection process.
Now that Ascent Solar is out of BIPV bussines, Powerfilm is the only one company making flexible solar modules on plastic for OEM, military, consumer and BIPV markets.
