Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. announced the company’s off-grid development partner, The Solar Cloth Company, won the 2014 United Kingdom’s Solar Industry Award for Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) solutions for its product utilizing Ascent Solar’s panels in cloth membrane roofing structures for carports.
“This award once again highlights the unique applications which can be pursued using Ascent’s groundbreaking solar technology,” said John Maslanik, Ascent’s manager of business development. “With over 320 square miles of roof-space in the United Kingdom which could potentially be integrated with this innovative system, this award further cements the large scale viability and huge opportunity in this particular distribution channel.”
“Being the winner of the Solar Industry Awards’ 2014 BIPV category is a tremendous honor and would not have been possible without Ascent Solar’s photovoltaics, which forms a crucial part of the supply chain and enables TSCC to build the solutions and product we provide,” said Perry Carroll, CEO and founder of The Solar Cloth Company. “Solar PV adoption has typically been slow, but together we have created a truly elegant and lightweight solution which can add real value to sites where solar panels have been previously impossible to use.”
