NanoFlex Power Corporation (NFP) and True Metal Solutions (TMS) have entered into a Joint Development Agreement to integrate organic photovoltaic (OPV) thin film material with cladding for building façades. Unlike rigid, silicon-based photovoltaics, OPV delivers high energy conversion efficiency in a clean organic material that is flexible, transparent and comes in a variety of colors. The project aims to change the construction tradecraft by allowing buildings to generate clean power using OPV cladding that is scalable, easy to install, visually appealing, and moves buildings toward zero-net energy use. The companies see sizeable financial upside in working together. According to a 2019 Market Study Report, over the next five years the global OPV market will register a 29% compounded annual growth rate and the global façade market is expected to reach $343 billion by 2025. By integrating OPV with building façades, clean solar energy is produced, and provides a path for Zero Net Energy (ZNE) mandates such as California and the EU. The companies project the U.S. building integrated OPV market to reach $3 billion by 2030.
