CIGS Flexible Solar Panels
Everyone is familiar with the mono or polysilicon (c-Si) glass modules that are on residential rooftops and large scale solar “farms”. In many applications, however, Copper Indium Gallium DiSelenide, or CIGS flexible solar panels are the best choice. Global Solar's PowerFlex®+ products offer benefits that c-Si can’t match.
Lightweight
Can be used on structures and roofs that can’t support glass module installations
Flexible
Can be used on curved roofs and surfaces
Wind Resistant
Great for high wind areas, as their flat installation does not increase the wind load
Lower Installation Costs
The lack of racking (and penetrations), and easy “peel and stick” installation lowers material and labor costs of installation.
Shade Resistant
Outperforms c-Si modules in partially shady conditions
Theft and Vandal Resistant
Virtually eliminates theft and vandalism of modules in high crime areas
Unbreakable
Largely eliminates issues of damage from microcracks as a result of foot traffic or vibration, earthquake and hailstone resistant
