'Mitrex,' the solar technology solutions company, has created a prototype of a solar panel that can be used in a variety of real-world, consumer situations. This new solar panel is made from a "building integrated photovoltaic" (BIPV) material that allows it to look like a regular construction material, such as brick, wood, or glass. Mitrex has stated that the seamless design and high build quality of this solar panel provides near limitless options for construction application.
The BIPV panels can be overlayed on top of existing infrastructure, or they can be used as a primary construction material for future construction ventures. These panels generate approximately 350W of power each, meaning a building, whether commercial or residential, can likely sustain itself entirely off of these panels. This is a large leap forward in renewable energy accessibility, especially due to the lenient pricing models that Mitrex offers.
