PhD Martin Aagesen from Nano-Science Center at Copenhagen University has made a significant scientific break through in nanostructures with an increased ability to absorb light and optimized for transforming it in to a sustainable energy form.

With this new patent pending technology, SunFlake will commence further application development and initiate production of Solar Cells with a significant energy increase and low production costs.

SunFlake is among the very first companies to use nanostructures as the only active element in a solar cell. The prospect of achieving record high conversion efficiencies combined with a reduction in fabrication cost gives SunFlake a strategic advantage on the fast growing competitive photovoltaic market.

Initial funding of SunFlake was commenced in first quarter of 2007 and SEED Capitals Cleantech investment team expects very promising results from this pioneering accession to solar cell production. Currently SunFlakes technology is being further assessed by several experts in nanotechnology and photovoltaic research for proof, potential and reliability.

“Solar cells will most likely never be the prevailing energy supplier, but households in rural areas around the world with no stable energy supply, as well as future high-tech mobile phones can benefit from this technology. We have grown accustomed to the fact that solar cells are big and inefficient! This is perhaps about to change” says Martin Aagesen, CEO,
