Power Roll has reinvented solar to generate energy anywhere and everywhere, using any surface

The lowest

cost power

​

Our flexible solar film

is capable of producing ultra-low cost electricity. At $0.03/Watt to manufacture, it's much cheaper than existing flexible PV solutions and delivers the lowest levelised energy cost of any solar technology.

Scalable and sustainable

Using lightweight, flexible film

massively expands the use of solar for existing applications and enables brand new possibilities. Our technology uses no rare earth materials and is recyclable.

Proven

technology

We create microgrooves

smaller than a human hair, in a 0.1mm thick flexible film. Using different active materials and groove patterns enables a huge range of new solar and energy storage applications.

Solar

​

We achieve the lowest cost of energy by using widely available materials and eliminating complex manufacturing steps. Our solar film requires far less energy to make, which results in a carbon footprint that’s 20x lower than silicon PV.

The film is lightweight and flexible making it 45% cheaper to install than silicon PV.

Capacitors

​

Capacitors are ubiquitous passive electronic components used across virtually all electrical product markets.

Our capacitors are cost-effective to manufacture and offer an enhanced lifetime compared with traditional wet electrolytic components. Using flexible film enables the use of innovative shapes to address form factor constraints.

Energy storage

​

By storing the energy that we generate, we enable more renewables to be deployed on the grid. New solutions for energy storage will result in flexible energy systems that can more easily balance supply and demand.

By applying different active materials to our microgroove technology we have the potential to create energy storage solutions with a range of discharge times. We are actively seeking partners to explore this potential.

Unrivalled 

market potential

Our mission is to dramatically increase the worldwide uptake of solar power.

​

Today's solar technologies are either too expensive to deploy or their rigidity and weight makes them unsuitable for the job. Our low-cost, flexible and lightweight solar film enables the use for renewables for a host of brand new applications.

Power Roll solar film will power more homes and businesses than ever before. It's suitable for nonload-bearing rooftops, building integration, transport, portable applications, off-grid projects and it can even power Internet of Things sensors.

​

By deploying different active materials, a wide range

of other applications are possible.

Changing lives

​

The availability of cheap, clean, portable and off-grid electricity generation has the power to change the lives of millions of people for good

For some, electricity also means clean water. Power Roll is piloting the use of solar film to pump water in Himalayan villages.
