Solaires Entreprises, a Canadian clean technology company pioneering perovskite-based photovoltaic solutions, has announced that it has received CAD$1,550,000 (around US$1,092,000) in non-dilutive funding from Sustainable Development Technology Canada (SDTC).
This funding will support the continued advancement and commercialization of Solaires’ innovative perovskite photovoltaic technology, allowing their PVModules to be brought into new applications like transportation and building-integrated solutions. These advancements will enable more sustainable solutions for low-power electronic devices and will catalyze massive GHG savings in the transportation and energy markets.
“At Solaires, we are committed to advancing photovoltaic technology to power a more sustainable future. With SDTC’s support, we can accelerate the development of our next-generation photovoltaic modules — designed for indoor and outdoor applications”. Said Dr. Sahar Sam, Co-founder and CEO of Solaires. “This support enables us to expand our impact into the transportation industry, bringing us closer to a world where photovoltaics are seamlessly integrated into everyday life.”
The transportation and commercial markets are desperately looking for sustainable solutions to reduce their carbon footprint. Solaires’ highest efficiency photovoltaic technology will aim to enable them to convert sunlight into energy on surfaces untouched by traditional solar solutions, which will power a variety of devices.
