Active Surfaces

Active Surfaces is a Massachusetts-based company that designs and produces lightweight, flexible solar technology to accelerate adoption in the built environment and rapidly mitigate CO₂ emissions at global scales. 

Founded in 2022, Active Surfaces is a venture backed company that stemmed from a robust IP portfolio initially developed by leading researchers at MIT. The team holds decades of experience in solar design, slot-die coating processing, and roll-to-roll manufacturing.

With its lab in Woburn, MA, Active Surfaces has built a unique approach for scalable perovskite PV products that are cost-effective, lightweight, highly efficient and manufactured domestically, in the United States. The ultra-lightweight nature and flexibility supported by novel packaging techniques will allow for their solar services and installation on buildings that previously could not support solar panels.
