Optony CEO speaking at FountainBlue's “Next Generation Solar Solutions” Conference

June 1, 2009
San Jose, CA

The first wave of clean energy investments have been in solar solutions. Now that investments have taken place for decades, the verdict has been coming in on solar solutions: some have evaporated, some have excelled, some are STILL up and coming, and some are amongst the walking dead. This leaves investors wary about funding new solar solutions, particularly if they are ‘me-too’ solutions, without innovation in technology or business models.

Optony's CEO was a panelist on this topic where the group cautioned not to be complacent with the dominance of silicon in the near term, but to proactively consider the next generation solar solutions as the US PV market is growing at a healthy clip, and orders of magnitude growth is expected for larger projects. There will therefore be an increased demand for all solar solutions provided that they are efficiently priced and delivered, including silicon, concentrated photovoltaics, thin film, and solar cells with nano and organic and other novel materials.
