Solarmer Energy Inc. is a developer of translucent, flexible plastic solar cells, the next wave in generating renewable energy from the sun. These solar cells are opening the door for a wide range of new application areas in renewable energy, which are not currently addressable with conventional silicon solar cell technology.
Solarmer was founded in 2006 to commercialize technology developed at the NanoRenewable Energy Center at the California NanoSystems Institute (CNSI) at UCLA. Building on this core plastic solar cell technology, Solarmer has gained the expertise to provide up to 20% efficiency improvement over any plastic solar cell material’s performance. This expertise is driven primarily by the company’s strong device engineering capability, as well as important process innovations.
The company is leveraging its partnerships on both sides of the supply chain for successful deployment of this technology. Solarmer is working in collaboration with research partners to develop the next generation of technologies essential to this field and is preparing to enter into post-prototype development with partners such as AMREL.
