We have built the first Thin-Film Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) Solar Cell that allows light to pass through.

Scalable Product Applications

Primary Application: The Solar Cube – Double-Stacked Utility Arrays

Typical silicon cells convert 23% of sunlight to electricity.

By stacking cells we can increase power conversion efficiency by 1.5x in the same square footage.

Our design includes an intelligent racking system that holds multiple layers of panels, simplifies wiring connections, and leverages IoT Technology to detect offline panels.

Our cells can be modified to have higher transparency (while sacrificing some efficiency) to be used in commercial-scale window applications.

Additional Application: Power-Producing Windows

Our Technology


A unique, patented solar panel assembly that stacks:
A transmissive Cadmium Telluride (CdTe) cell on top of Electrically distinct Crystalline Silicon (c-Si) cell to capture
more wavelengths than standard panels

Stack Panels = Capture More Wavelengths

CdTeCell c-SiCell Even the best c-SiCells fail to capture~70% of the spectrum Stacking panelsincrease breadth ofwavelenghts captured
