Flex-03WS Series 170W CIGS Flexible Solar PV Panel Module
FLEX adhesive thin film flexible CIGS solar panel for TPO system
Model No.: FLEX-03WS-170W
CIGS stands for Copper Indium Gallium Selenide.
Material Characteristics:
It is a compound semiconductor material. The combination of these elements gives CIGS unique electrical and optical properties.
It has a high absorption coefficient for sunlight, which means it can absorb a large amount of solar energy even in a relatively thin layer. This property allows for the fabrication of lightweight and flexible solar panels.
Advantages in Solar Cells:
High Efficiency: CIGS-based solar cells have demonstrated relatively high conversion efficiencies, reaching up to around 20% or more in laboratory settings.
Flexibility: Can be fabricated on flexible substrates, enabling applications on curved surfaces such as on some portable devices, vehicles, and building-integrated photovoltaics where rigid solar panels are not suitable.
Technology
Our flexible solar panel adopts CIGS technology, which has an aperature efficiency as high as 17%, rivaling that of rigid glass panels.
General production process
We begin with high-grade stainless steel foil and use an advanced semiconductor deposition process, PVD, to produce the most controlled, stable, and powerful flexible stainless steel CIGS cell in the world. Once the cell structure is deposited on the foil, special transparent conductive oxides are applied, and a specialized plastic-cell interconnect mesh-wire system is laminated to the cell, which is in turn protected by special water barrier plastics. The transparent water barrier is key to the longevity of the Flexi module series. The special plastic backsheet has an internal aluminum film to prevent water transmission from eroding the powerful stainless steel CIGS cells.
Benefits:
-Light weight:
Less than 2.4 kg/m(<0.5 lb/ft). Because flexible solar modules are so much lighter than heavy rigid silicon panels mounted with racks, they are best solution for building structures with low dead load and environmental load limitations(such as snow).
The modules are also ideal for other structures, such as autos, trucks, and RVs, that are not constructed to support the weight of traditional solar panels.
-Powerful:
Flex modules are the highest efficiency flexible thin-film CIGS modules in production today, with aperature efficiencies as high as 17%, providing over four times the power generation per kilogram of silicon.
-Easy to install:
Flexible solar modules are peel-and-stick application. This eliminates penetrations into the structure, reducing the chance of leaks.
Peel-and-stick application also allows for installation on surfaces such as autos, trucks and RVs where racks would not feasible, and lowers the balance-of-systems (BOS) costs and complexity when mounting FLEX modules on rooftops.
-Flexible:
FLEX modules conform to curved surfaces, enabling solar power generation on surfaces not suited to traditional rigid silicon panels.
-Resistant to Natural Disasters:
Flexible solar modules are thin (2.5mm) and adhere directly to surfaces, providing excellent wind and seismic resistance.
The modules are also shatterproof, and won't break if struck by debris.
-Reliable:
Flex solar modules' unique redundant interconnect design enables industry-leading reliability.
KEY FEATURES-FLEX Series Modules:
-Record efficiency levels in a flexible form factor
-Low installed weight at less than 2.4 kg/m2(<0.5lb/ft )

WARRANTY
-5 year workmanship
-10/25 year warranty against power loss
Applications:
1. Residential Use:
Installed on rooftops of homes, CIGS solar panels can help homeowners reduce their electricity bills and increase their energy independence. The flexibility of these panels allows for creative installations on different roof types.
2. Commercial and Industrial Buildings:
For businesses and industries, CIGS panels can provide a reliable source of renewable energy. They can be integrated into the facades or roofs of buildings, reducing energy costs and demonstrating a commitment to sustainability.
3. Portable Power Solutions:
Due to their light weight and flexibility, CIGS panels can be used in portable power applications such as camping gear, RVs, and boats. They can provide power in remote locations where access to the electrical grid is limited.
4. Off-Grid Installations:
In remote areas without access to the power grid, CIGS solar panels can be a crucial part of off-grid power systems. They can power homes, farms, and small communities, providing a sustainable and independent energy source.
5. Automotive Industry:
CIGS solar panels can be integrated into electric vehicles to increase their range and reduce the need for frequent charging. They can also be used to power auxiliary systems in vehicles, reducing the load on the main battery.
