Sunplugged´s hybrid glass/metal substrate has significant advantages for flexible photovoltaics.
It allows to apply integrated interconnection concepts (monolithical or printed interconnection). It can be processed at high temperatures in a robust way. That means no issues like wrinklings, microcracks etc are occuring when used in a rugged industrial environment.

BENEFITS
Sunplugged´s Hybrate offers improved stability, performance and reliability for solar modules. The use of Hybrates results in significantly lower costs cost of the fininished PV modules due to lower material costs, higher process speeds and higher efficiencies per square meter.
Sunplugged has developed a multilayer structure of electrically insulating oxides which are deposited on a commercially availablle stainless-steel strip.
Flexible insulating substrates are typically polymers that have limited stability under harsh processing conditions, such as high temperatures and vacuums. Sunplugged´s Hybrate foils provide electrical insulation at high processing temperatures The electrically-insulating coating is stable in atmospheric and high vacuum environments and can withstand temperatures above 600°C.
