Thin-film solar panels are among the most advanced and efficient power generation technologies created for the solar industry. These photovoltaic (PV) modules include several types according to the materials used to manufacture them. One of the most popular ones is the Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) technology.
MiaSolé is the producer of powerful, lightweight, shatterproof, and flexible solar cells. The innovative
solar cell is based on the highest efficiency thin-film technology available today, and its flexible cell
architecture makes it ideal for a wide variety of solutions ranging from off-grid transportation solutions
to commercial roofing solar panels to flexible mobile devices.
Why flexible Solar:
Flexible lightweight shatterproof solar cells and modules can go where rigid breakable glass modules
can't. This makes it possible to add solar energy generation to curved surfaces, vehicles, structures such
as carports and storage facilities, floating reservoir covers, landfill membrane covers, low-load capacity
roofs, as well as mobile devices and many other applications.
How do we do it?
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 MiaSolé FLEX
modules. The special plastic back sheet has an internal aluminum film to prevent water transmission
from eroding the powerful stainless steel CIGS cells.

Typical applications of CIGS thin-film solar panels
With high recorded efficiency, CIGS technology is becoming quite popular due to its applications.
Solar shingle tiles
CIGS solar technology is used to manufacture solar shingle tiles, which are CIGS solar cells capsuled within durable and lightweight polymer sheets, giving the shingle its shape and color. Solar shingle tiles can provide homes with high-quality architectural designs the possibility of generating solar power without installing the regular rooftop PV system, maintaining the aesthetics while enjoying renewable energy.
Utility-scale
Considering the high efficiency and reduced losses due to temperature, CIGS technology is becoming more popular for utility-scale applications. Installing a CIGS solar farm might require a larger installation space than with rigid modules, but the power output, durability, and other aspects make it a better investment.
Rooftop installations
Crystalline silicon modules are the most commonly used technology for rooftop installations, but many homeowners are opting for CIGS PV modules. CIGS technology performs better in climates with extreme temperatures due to their temperature coefficient, they have a longer lifespan and perform better for different levels of solar irradiance than c-Si modules.
Building Integrated Photovoltaics
Building Integrated Photovoltaics or BIPV is one of the most cutting-edge and innovative applications of CIGS technology. This is achieved by installing colored or patterned PV modules used with CIGS technology.
This application gives buildings (especially those with high-end architectural designs) the ability to generate solar power without disrupting aesthetics. BIPV applications are extremely useful since the building takes advantage of the large façade surface to generate solar power and does not require additional space.
Flexible PV modules
CIGS technology can be used to manufacture flexible PV modules. These modules can be adapted to odd shapes, curved rooftops, or the sides of buildings, providing the ability to generate power with PV modules that adapt to the shape of the surface.
Portable applications
CIGS alongside and CdTe technology can be used for portable applications. This provides a method of generating small amounts of power to charge electronics and power small appliances while being on the road, camping, or doing similar activities. The two most common portable applications are foldable solar panels and solar chargers.
