At CES in Las Vegas, Dracula Technologies has introduced Layer Vault. This technology combines low-light Organic Photovoltaic (OPV) energy harvesting and electrical storage on a single flexible film, thus providing a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to traditional batteries.
The currently most efficient organic solar module was constructed at the Helmholtz Institute Erlangen-Nuremberg for Renewable Energies (HI ERN). It achieves a new record efficiency of 14.46 per cent.
The construction company Hering is buying the company Asca, a manufacturer of organic photovoltaic (OPV) elements, including the OPV specialist's production facilities, brand rights and patents.
Asca and the sustainable tech-fashion brand Art by Physicist have started a contest on Hackster.io, the world´s largest network for hardware and software developers.
The manufacturer of organic photovoltaic films Asca cooperates with the Solar Decathlon Team Collab of the University of Stuttgart. The students will present the environmentally friendly building at the Solar Decathlon Europe 21/22 from 10 June 2022.
Asca has purchased a significant portfolio of device- and module-related intellectual property (IP) regarding printed OPV.
Organic photovoltaics (OPV) provider ASCA has expanded the colour portfolio of its solar films by integrating new acceptor materials into its products. The company is receiving the novel materials from its long-standing partner Nano-C.
ASCA has increased the efficiency of its modules by 40 per cent with new semiconductor materials. The components are supplied by the Taiwanese company Raynergy Tek.
The Swiss manufacturer Roomz has integrated ASCA´s organic photovoltaic modules to upgrade their wireless meeting-room management devices and power them with light.
The ASCA solar films can be used in a wide range of applications – from individual small projects to facades in commercial housing construction. Here is a solar tree that charges e-bikes:
Manufacturer Armor Solar from Bavaria has developed a new technology with which organic solar cells (OPV) can be integrated quickly, easily and flexibly into any glass format and facade.
Art by Physicist is a Silicon Valley start-up specialising in sustainable and smart women's fashion that develops connected clothing that can be used, for example, to charge electronic devices on the go.
