Ascent Solar Adds New Series of Products to its BIPV/BAPV Product Portfolio

Business Wire
Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:ASTI), a developer of
flexible thin-film solar modules, announced today the launch of its
new WaveSol™ series of five meter long modules to complement its
current portfolio of building integrated (BIPV) and building
applied (BAPV) photovoltaic product portfolio.
WaveSol™ WSLB 3200-190 is the highest power 5 meter flexible and
light-weight CIGS module available and another example of Ascent
Solar’s dedication to and heritage of producing flexible
light-weight high power CIGS modules with large format (5.0m X
0.6m), high power (320 Watts), high voltage (up to 190 Volts) and
high specific power (50 Watts/kg). This new series of products is
enabled by recent advances in our CIGS monolithic integration
process resulting in our new 30 cm x 60 cm building blocks which
are four times the size of the current building block sub-modules.
The module family consists of fewer parts that reduce overall
internal power losses and significantly reduces manufacturing and
testing operations. This product is specifically designed to meet
the needs of large commercial scale rooftop installations by
providing unique attributes that reduce BOS costs and ease of
integration into roofing components in a way this industry has yet
to experience. Ascent Solar plans to showcase the product in
October of this year during the Solar Power International
conference to be held in Los Angeles, CA.
Ascent Solar President and CEO Farhad Moghadam added, “We are
proud of our heritage and unwavering dedication to flexible CIGS
solar module manufacturing. We intend to maintain our leading
position as the pre-eminent manufacturer of flexible, light-weight
CIGS modules for BIPV/BAPV solutions by translating advances in
production into world-leading modules that will enable the
proliferation of solar while making it a cost effective solution.
We look forward to showcasing this module to the world during the
Solar Power International convention next month, as well as
planning several beta site installations with existing
customers.”
