Flexible Solar Panels: The lightest thin film flexible solar panels on today's market are available from Silicon Solar.

 
Flexible Solar Panels

Solar technology has reached its most convenient, lightweight form: the newly-engineered flexible solar panel. Silicon Solar is the proud carrier of over 50 modules of flexible solar panels, offered in a variety of sizes.

Through recent developments, Silicon Solar has provided ways of listing thin, light weight, flexible solar panels allowing for multiple applications to now be solar accessible that never were before.

Thin Film solar cells and panels now allow for several types of application to be introduced into the market including solar backpacks, solar thin film clothing and athletic apparel. We at Silicon Solar have taken these methods to the extreme and receive requests from customers who give us incentive and constructive feedback on developing new ways of utilizing this technology not only for them, but for you as well. Each flexible solar panel can be rolled up to 2 inches in diameter, making the paper thin solar cell one of the most durable and long lasting solar modules on the market.

Information for Flexible Solar Panels Products

Flexible solar panels use the same concepts as traditional semiconducting solar panels. They are capable of being flexible because of the production process used: thin film deposition.

It is possible to deposit thin layers of silicon onto flexible substrates, such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET). The silicon is able to bend along with the flexible PET substrate without compromising structure because the silicon layers are only micrometers thick.

Thin Film Processing:

Thin film processing has an advantage over typical manufacturing techniques due the ease of manufacturing and reduction in manufacturing costs. The process allows manufacturers to create large rolls that can later be cut into smaller pieces. Not only are flexible solar panels inexpensive but they are also lightweight in comparison to their non-flexible counterparts.

This makes the flexible solar panel ideal for portability and where available space can be an issue. Practical applications for these solar cells include, but are not limited to, charging AA, AAA, 6 volt, and 12 volt batteries.

In the Flexible Solar Panels Subcategory, you will find 12v Consumer Ready Panels, 12v Flexible Solar Panels, 3v-4v Flexible Solar Panels, 6v-7v Flexible Solar Panels, and a selection of Flexible Solar Panel Accessories. The 12v Consumer Ready Panels are available wattages ranging from 5 watts to 50 watts. The 12v Flexible Solar Panels offer large solar pads which allow easy interconnection. The 3v-4v Flexible Solar Panels are ideal panels for charging AA, AAA, C and D rechargeable batteries. The 6v-7v Flexible Solar Panels are a good choice recharging 6v battery packs.
