Introducing the CIGS technology:
From the molecular structure to your day-to-day benefits.
What are THE CIGS
— Copper Indium Gallium Selenide
Copper Indium Gallium Selenide ( CIGS ) is a ① semiconductor material.
* ①Compared with indrect-bandgap semiconductors, the direct-bandgap semiconductors emit light more efficiently
because electrons can drop directly from the conduction band to the valence band without changing their momentum, which requires interactions that can drain away energy. In our case, mostly the light energy.
Its structure gives it an ② absorption coefficient of up to 105(cm-1) for visible light at about 1mm, superior to other battery materials. The absorption layer of CIGS thin-film cells only needs to be 1 to 2mm thick to absorb 90 percent of the sunlight.ading text.
* ②The absorption coefficient determines how deeply a specific wavelength of light can penetrate a material before being absorbed. For instance, light is poorly absorbed by a material with a low absorption coefficient.
At the same time, CIGS are constructed with ③ High defect tolerance, making them still maintain a high performance level even when there are defects or impurities in the material, achiving a higher efficiency.
* ③Defect tolerance indicates either a low density of defects in the material or a relative insensitivity of functional properties to defects.

Thinner, Lighter, Better.
Lightweight
———— They don't require any additional mounting or aluminum frames. This not only improves aerodynamics, but also enhances the overall aesthetics of your solar-powered setup.
360° Flexibility
———— Incredibly flexible and can easily be rolled up for compact storage an transportation. It can even be bent and adjusted to fit curved surfaces without cracking.
Easy to install
———— The pre-assembled adhesive backing that eliminates the need for brackets and drilling during installation. No tools are required for an easy and hassle-free setup.
CIGS Product Recommendations
Not only did we make them smaller — PASO
We also made them roll — YUMA
Each of our solar cells has an independent circuit, completely connected in parallel, which can enhance safety and avoid the Hot Spot Effect.
*The Hot Spot Effect in solar panels occurs when a portion is shaded, causing that area to overheat as it resists the current from unshaded cells. This can degrade or even destroy the solar cells. To avoid this issue, it's crucial to prevent shading on panels and use bypass diodes to divert the current around shaded cells.

Our CIGS panels can absorb more light in low light are produce more energy conditions.
*The top electrode and CdS buffer layer have high transparency for wavelengths of 350-1250 nm to minimize light energy loss and good conductivity to reduce resistance-related loss.
Future Development of CIGS Solar Panels
The future development of the Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) industry promises advancements in solar technology.
Research is ongoing to increase efficiency and reduce manufacturing costs, exploring new methods like co-evaporation and nanoparticle ink-based techniques.
Emphasis will also be on improving stability and durability of CIGS solar cells. Advancements in thin-film technology could potentially make CIGS solar cells more viable and competitive in the renewable energy market.
The transition towards sustainable energy sources will likely drive significant growth in the CIGS industry.

CIGS solar panels differ significantly from the common mono solar panels on the market in terms of both material and functionality. The unique composition of CIGS solar panels grants them robust features, such as 360° flexibility, shatter-resistance, and lightweight characteristics, all while being able to be rolled up and folded without causing damage. These advantages make CIGS solar panels adaptable to a wide variety of use cases, enabling them to function normally in even the harshest, most extreme environments, and extending their product lifespan. Overall, while the price of CIGS solar panels may be higher than that of mono solar panels, their superior functionality and broad range of use cases provide them with strong competitiveness.
Lifespan: Our solar panels significantly differ from traditional ones in terms of materials. The special materials we use endow our products with shatter-resistance and impact resistance, meaning they won't easily break compared to flexible versions made from mono-materials. Additionally, the warranty period for our solar cells still reaches 25 years, mirroring that of prevailing solar panels on the market. Furthermore, given our product's durability and long-term battery warranty, we provide a total of 12 years of product warranty service for our customers.
Our CIGS solar panels employ a diode parallel operation mode, with each thin-film section able to individually output power without interference from others. This implies that even if certain sections are accidentally damaged, other intact sections can still maintain stable power output. In other words, our solar panels exhibit excellent reliability, ensuring their performance and efficiency even when partially damaged.
In terms of unit efficiency, CIGS solar panels might slightly fall behind glass panels, mainly due to their inferior heat dissipation performance. However, when compared with other flexible solar panels on the market, our panels actually match - or in some cases, even exceed - in terms of output power.
Despite having slightly lower heat dissipation, our CIGS solar panels, equipped with bypass diodes, do not suffer from hot spot effects and associated safety concerns. In contrast, such issues may arise with monocrystalline flexible solar panels available on the market.
