Columbus Energy, Saule Technologies and Somfy Polska are planning to propose innovative solutions for existing buildings and building projects under construction. These companies, working together on the commercial application of perovskite cells, have signed a strategic cooperation agreement.
This tripartite agreement, signed on March 30 this year by Columbus Energy, Saule Tech-nologies and Somfy Polska, finalizes the understanding which the companies made in August 2021 on the occasion of launching the commercial application of Saule Technologies’ sun blinds, which are sun breakers with perovskite solar cells.
Somfy, as one of the leaders of housing and building automation market and smart home systems, opens up new opportunities for Saule and Columbus, and provides access to its customers and products solutions.
In line with the agreement, the companies will cooperate in the scope of commercialization and further development of perovskite cells, in the sphere of energy and digital transition in Poland. They are also planning to develop and launch new products for the existing building sector or for buildings under construction, including those addressed to individ-ual customers.
“We are planning to create several new products based on perovskite cells, including at least three from the BAPV, B2B utility-scale and B2C categories. Having outstanding state-of-the-art energy experts and world class manufacturer of building automation systems, we are able to develop solutions which have the chance to revolutionise the green con-struction sector,” said Piotr Krych, management board representative at Saule S.A.
“In March 2021, the European Commission clearly marked out the digital development direction by 2030. Saule Technologies presented its response to this call in November 2021 for the first time during the première of PESL – Perovskite Electronic Shelf Label. Cooperation with Somfy is yet another step on our way to open up to new markets, where perovskite cells will be used in the IoT sector to digitalise the B2B utility-scale sector - in factories, warehouses, etc. - and the B2C sector. We are sure that our joint efforts, coupled with the uniqueness of perovskite cells, will allow full process automation with the use of perovskite cells, electronic systems, predictive solutions, AI, big data and advanced IT so-lutions, with a view to accelerating the transformation of EU economies,” said Artur Kup-czunas, VP of the Management Board, Saule S.A.
