Why Organic PV
Design features:• Flexible
• Thin
• Light-weight
• Impact Resistant
• Low light sensitivity (indoor/outdoor)
• Multiple colors: red, green, gray
• Transparent version
• Customized voltage
Truly Green:• Recycleablility
• Environmental impact on a per Watt peak basis which is 80-95% lower than silicon*
