We've been keeping a tally of recent record-setting solar cell and module achievements. We're now adding MiaSolé's 15.5% efficiency mark for a flexible CIGS solar cell.
Note that this is an aperture-area efficiency on a commercial-size flexible PV module with a total area of 1.68 square meters. That eclipses the 13.4% mark recently set by SoloPower.
MiaSolé is targeting commercial deliveries of 14-percent-efficient glass modules by the end of the year.
