Abstract

CSEM in its photovoltaic activity has developed white solar modules with conversion efficiencies above 10%. This innovative PV technology is particularly attractive to be used in building industry where PV elements can blend into building skin and become virtually hidden energy sources. The new Swiss company called Solaxess is now working on the industrialization of this new technology and the first products are expected to be in the market at the end of 2015.
