  • G24 makes ‘first commercial shipment’ of printed solar cells

Printable solar cell pioneer G24 Innovations has announced the first commercial shipment of its Dye Sensitised Solar Cell technology. The company's solar panels will be integrated into consumer electronics bags manufactured by Hong Kong Mascotte Industrial Associates.

G24i's chief executive officer John Hartnett said: "We've achieved this milestone through a sustained focus on transforming a highly promising technology from the lab to mass production, such that it can be applied to a variety of commercial opportunities. Our goal is to deliver the future of mobile energy by personalising solar power, which we will achieve by remaining at the forefront of design and development of this revolutionary light-harvesting technology."
G24i first acquired a license to manufacture the technology in 2006, with unlimited worldwide distribution rights. Since then, G24i has pioneered the development of a breakthrough, low cost, roll to roll manufacturing process which can support a range of diverse applications for the technology.
