The rigid framework limits the surfaces where you can use it and so we need something more malleable and flexible that can fit wherever you need it to fit. Solar films are the newest innovation when it comes to this kind of energy source and some European firms are trying to develop and utilize these products to create better renewable energy sources.<\/p>\n<p>Designers: Heliatek and Solar Cloth<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-414575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/5.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/12\/28\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Solar films may be the more flexible future of solar power\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/5.jpeg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-414575\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/5.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"1280\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/12\/28\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Solar films may be the more flexible future of solar power\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/5.jpeg\">Solar films can do the same things as solar panels but they have a more flexible as well as lightweight characteristics so they\u2019re easier to install in whatever surface you want. HeliaSol has actually been around since 2017, created by German brand Heliatek. It\u2019s like a sticker that you can set up in places like schools, wind turbine facilities, and other areas with large surfaces, generating power of 85W per square meter and leaving a carbon footprint of less than 10g CO2e\/kW. The company has also recently released HeliaFilm, this time it\u2019s a stick-on roll of film that can stick to glass,. concrete, and metal.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-414576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/12\/28\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Solar films may be the more flexible future of solar power\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/1.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-414576\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/12\/28\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Solar films may be the more flexible future of solar power\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/1.jpg\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-3\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<amp-ad width=\"100vw\" height=\"320\" type=\"adsense\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-0648786275385337\" data-ad-slot=\"6683677248\" data-auto-format=\"rspv\" data-full-width=\"\"><\/p>\n<div overflow=\"\"><\/div>\n<p><\/amp-ad><\/div>\n<div class=\"code-block code-block-1\" style=\"margin: 8px 0; clear: both;\">\n<div style=\"padding: 4px; margin: 18px auto 20px; text-align:center;\"><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\" type=\"89d38200185877874d7795ec-text\/javascript\"><\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"89d38200185877874d7795ec-text\/javascript\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-414577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/12\/28\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Solar films may be the more flexible future of solar power\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/2.jpg\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-414577\" src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1280\" height=\"850\" data-jpibfi-post-excerpt=\"\" data-jpibfi-post-url=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/2022\/12\/28\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/\" data-jpibfi-post-title=\"Solar films may be the more flexible future of solar power\" data-jpibfi-src=\"https:\/\/www.yankodesign.com\/images\/design_news\/2022\/12\/solar-films-may-be-the-more-flexible-future-of-solar-power\/2.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p>Solar Cloth is a French company that previously launched their M170 solar film model. It is 0.5mm thick and can generate 170 watts per square meter and can be installed in different kinds of surfaces whether it\u2019s straight or round. The technique they use to create the film is based on material recycling which makes it even more renewable. They said that this solar film is able to generate a 17.2% yield when they used it on a roll-up textile base.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Les tentes du XXI\u00e8me si\u00e8cle ont besoin d\u2019\u00e9nergie\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mDu1ZVqdUqs?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The HeliaFilm uses organic photovoltaics (OVP) <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> that basically uses light that is converted into electricity through semiconducting materials.
