| Description: | The Power of 1000 Suns Semprius is developing concentrator photovoltaic (CPV) modules for large-scale solar power generation. Semprius’ proprietary micro-transfer printing technology enables CPV modules constructed from a large array of very small gallium arsenide-based, multi-junction solar cells. Module cost is minimized by using high concentration ratio. Inexpensive optics concentrate 1,000 suns onto the high-efficiency solar cells, which only cover 0.1% of the module area. Semprius Advantage Unique design and assembly - Low cost Many cells - Highly redundant, improved reliability Very small cells - Thermal management at no added cost Short optical path - Very high efficiency optics, thin and light Wide optical acceptance angle - Reduced tracker cost |
