Silevo is the first company to commercialize a ‘tunneling junction’ solar cell, a hybrid technology which couples the best attributes of 3 different materials (1) N-type crystalline substrate, 2) Thin Film Passivation, 3) Semiconductor oxide to optimize cell and module performance while limiting costs. Silevo’s breakthrough cell innovation coupled with traditional crystalline silicon (c-Si) package techniques enable Silevo’s Triex modules to optimize all three performance indicators in order to deliver the industry’s best value.


Efficiency
Up to 21% cell efficiency as demonstrated today on production scale materials and validated by Sandia National Labs with proven headroom to reach 24% cell efficiency.
Costs
Initial manufacturing costs are competitive with today’s c-Si cost leaders with a roadmap to deliver <$0.65/Wp in 2014.
Harvest
Thin Film module like temperature coefficients enable 5-12% additional energy harvest in arid climates.
