Sol Voltaics creates nanomaterials to improve the efficiency of solar energy capture, generation and storage. A fast-growing, venture-backed company with a strong intellectual property portfolio, we are developing a high-volume production platform for our patented Aerotaxy® nanowire thin-film process, which will dramatically improve the efficiency of conventional solar modules while maintaining very competitive pricing.

The company made a major technological breakthrough with the successful alignment of gallium-arsenide nanowires in a thin film. When integrated in a tandem-junction architecture on mainstream crystalline silicon panels, Sol Voltaics’ nanomaterials innovations will enable photovoltaic (PV) module efficiencies of well over 27% — representing a > 50% enhancement in energy generation compared to today’s solar panels. 

Sol Voltaics has also progressed through several generations of development of its Aerotaxy® technology. This patented process, originating out of Lund University in Sweden, is the foundation for producing nanowire solar cells and films in a cost-effective manner, a key parameter in the commercialisation process. 

The company is backed by the Swedish Energy Agency and has also received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program.

Sol Voltaics is based in Lund, Sweden.
