Business Summary
Square One Solar Systems Corporation has developed a revolutionary technology that will change the face of the Photovoltaic (PV) solar energy industry around the world. Through the development of a proprietary solar PV panel manufacturing technology, Square One Solar plans to manufacture non-Silicon based, quantum dot polymer solar panels for global consumption that maximize solar energy efficiency, are cost effective, easy to use, and safe for the environment.
Technology
Square One Solar Systems Corporation has developed the technology to precisely synthesize Quantum Dots of dissimilar sizes that have absorption spectra between IR to UV in a solar cell, allowing the harvesting of a much larger portion of the available solar spectrum. This technology is applicable to deposition by screen-printing to create an economic thin-film device en masse.
Production
Square One 's solar panels are manufactured using simple screen-printing technology. Using plastic film as the substrate, proprietary solutions are screen printed onto the substrate, creating solar cells that convert solar radiation (photons) into electricity. The solar panel is then laminated to protect the photovoltaic cells, generating a solar panel that is 0.5 mm in thickness, flexible, and actively generating energy at 6V to 220V under maximum conditions. Installation is simple, strong and effective. Being light and flexible the panels can be installed very inexpensively and even on curved surfaces.
Market
The solar energy industry is growing at a rate of 25%-35% per year as solar energy becomes adopted around the world as one of the most reliable forms of alternative power. Expected to provide between 10-20% of worldwide energy in the future, more than 2 billion people in both industrial and non-industrial countries will rely on solar energy to supply electricity to their homes, businesses, and industries. In the US alone, the usage of solar power and, therefore, the demand for solar power technology, will rise exponentially. Included will be the increased usage of new commercial systems of 500,000 watts or more, as well as small, standardized systems for rooftops, and attractive "building-integrated" devices in commercial buildings.
