SOLRA: Converting Light Into Energy, And At Half The Cost Of Silicon Solar Cells
SOLRA, a solar cells technology startup associated with the Hebrew University of Jerusalem’s Yissum Technology Transfer Company, is developing third-generation solar cells based on thin film materials derived from perovskite. These cells can be semi-transparent and affixed to buildings, providing solar windows. SOLRA aims to focus on applications that silicon cells cannot fulfill, such as powering the IoT and indoor electricity generation. The companys technology has the potential to replace silicon in the solar industry, offering higher efficiency and lower costs. SOLRA plans to have a real demonstration of its prototype in 2023. The company faces challenges in raising funds for materials-based ventures, but it is optimistic about the future of solar energy.
