In recent years, many people in Flanders and the Netherlands have been able to install solar cells, thanks to the subsidy policy. In some places the traditional solar panels have become a familiar sight on streets, even though not everyone considers them attractive. PV Opmaat responds to this challenge by finding more efficient and customised ways to integrate solar panels into homes and buildings. Solar cell materials consisting of a fine film present extraordinary opportunities as they can be applied directly to glass, steel or foil material. The adaptability of dimensions, shapes, colours and electrical properties means cells can be integrated into building products cost efficiently and aesthetically. There is a high demand from construction companies, housing associations and local power grids for cells with better integration options. To this end, PV Opmaat is researching and demonstrating promising applications of fine film solar cells in construction elements. This generates opportunities for interested producers and fitters. Thanks to the Interreg IV project, Solar Flare, an internationally pioneering alliance of companies and public organisations has emerged and the potential of fine film solar cells has been demonstrated. PV Opmaat is making good use of the results of this project and is taking it further on the basis of a solid foundation. (English)
