Flisom is a developer and manufacturer of photovoltaic (PV) thin film solar cells located near Zurich, Switzerland, founded in 2005. The company produces high-efficiency CIGS thin film solar modules on flexible plastic foil using proprietary roll-to-roll manufacturing techniques.
The innovative manufacturing technology enables price competition with established c-si PV manufacturing systems at a comparatively smaller production scale. Furthermore, the lightweight, flexible, jet-black and thin solar panels potentially can bring down the overall costs for fully installed solar PV systems. This is about half the cost of conventional PV technology based on crystalline silicon.[1]
Potential applications for flexible lightweight CIGS modules include building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), applied photovoltaics (BAPV), as well as customized solar panels for Transportation & Mobility and portable rollable power systems.[2]
