About MiaSole
MiaSolé is a producer of lightweight, flexible and powerful CIGS 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 transportation to off-grid applications to commercial and residential roofing.MiaSolé has the highest efficiency thin film in production, with an average efficiency of 16.5% and rising steadily with technological advantages. The thin film also performs better than silicon in low light and shaded conditions.The advantages of thin film solar in today’s market are numerous. The lightweight flexible structure of MiaSolé solar modules makes them ideal for advanced applications such as transportation, where the shatterproof modules can be adhered directly to a cab or trailer and offer superior wind resistance and resistance to damage from hail, rocks, and other road debris. The power from the FLEX solar modules offsets fuel consumption, saving money.
In addition, FLEX modules keep the battery charged, reducing battery service calls and cost and extending battery life for even more savings. Another interesting application is to use MiaSolé FLEX modules to power location GPS devices for shared bicycles as well as truck trailers.For off-grid applications, MiaSolé FLEX modules have been applied to boats, tents, and off-grid LED lighting. The modules are theft-resistant and resistant to vandalism, which is a key feature in this market. FLEX modules have also been used to power remote houses disconnected from the electrical grid.MiaSolé thin film is also well suited to today’s BIPV solutions. The solar cell is a key component of Hanergy’s innovative HanTiles, and the FLEX modules can be integrated into standing seam metal roofs for a seamless appearance. The FLEX modules conform to curves, allowing for their use in specialty architecture such as distinctive carports and buildings.
