SEKISUI CHEMICAL and SEKISUI SOLAR FILM (SSF) have launched a film-type perovskite solar cell called "SOLAFIL". Aiming for commercialization in fiscal 2025, the companies have been working on the development and establishment of mass production technology. As a result, they have completed preparations for the commercialization of products and installation specifications targeting metal roofs with the establishment of manufacturing technology using existing equipment.
"SOLAFIL" will be provided to municipalities and businesses selected for the Ministry of the Environment's fiscal year 2025 public offering project "Support Project for the Introduction of Perovskite Solar Cell Social Implementation Models" (Saitama City, Shiga Prefecture, West Nippon Expressway Company Limited, Fukuoka Prefecture, Fukuoka City) and the Tokyo Metropolitan Government's "Air Solar Pre-Introduction Project for Tokyo Metropolitan Facilities".
Going forward, in fiscal year 2026, the companies will proceed with the provision of products with limited production volume using existing equipment, and in fiscal 2027, they will establish a 100MW-scale production line to expand supply volume.
