Plextronics First to Deploy OPV Modules at NREL Facility
August 14, 2009
A set of Plextronics Inc.'s test solar modules were deployed at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) for outdoor monitoring and performance testing. This is the first set of organic photovoltaic (OPV) modules ever deployed at NREL. The performance of the test modules will be continuously monitored and the data compared with similar testing being done in Pittsburgh. The data over the next few months will be used to improve outdoor stability of the company's OPV technology and pave the way for testing more modules and refinement of the method. Senior Project Leader at NREL, Dr. Bolko von Roedern, said "I expect this kind of testing will be able to help move OPV technology generally closer to commercialization."
