Wind and solar energy actually complement each other most of the time, as it is often cloudy when the wind is strong and often sunny when the wind resources are low.

Today, most of the manufacturing of PV modules is concentrated in just three countries: China, Malaysia and South Korea. Together they produce over 85% of solar PV modules.

PI Energy is advancing its P4 solar cell development in two key parameters: increasing area and efficiency.

For the US to meet its clean energy goals, it is important to develop a far larger solar PV module manufacturing base in North America. PI Energy’s technology is ideally suited for a fast ramp-up of local solar module fabrication.

The transportation costs of solar panels to a recycling facility can be as much as the cost of recycling itself. In the US, most of the old c-Si panels go to the landfill, with only about 10% being recycled.

PI Energy’s technology under development will allow for direct placement of the conformally-wrapping PV modules onto the equipment, a far more cost-effective approach.

PI Energy solar PV on electric vehicles can extend vehicle range with passive charging, reduce the requirements for charging infrastructure, and perform well at high temperatures while reducing cost.

The DOE Clean Energy Future brief concluded that simply to meet current decarbonization goals for US electricity generation, the rate of solar deployment in the US “would need to accelerate to three to four times faster than its current rate by 2030”.

The IPCC Report details the past, present, and future trajectory of earth’s climate, and highlights the need for new clean energy to meet these goals.

PI Energy’s technology offers a source of re-charging and mileage addition that can happen passively, is entirely renewable, could be supplemental or primary depending on the driver's needs thus lowers or eliminates trips and time spent at charging stations, and gives an option if charging stations are not available.

Renewable energy today only makes up only about 6% of primary energy consumed globally. The current rate of growth for clean energy is insufficient to meaningfully mitigate climate impacts, and without significant changes in the underlying technologies of today’s renewable energy, it could take many decades to reach an energy transition.

Some common questions about the company we wanted to answer for you.

PI Energy is uniquely positioned to open vast, untapped markets for clean energy with its technology in development.

Hyperscale data centers are an example of a new solar energy market addressable by PI Energy’s technology in development.

One of the advantages of thin-film PV is the superior high-temperature performance, which results in higher efficiency compared to standard crystalline wafer-based silicon PV.
