Solar Frontier Power Module
Envisioning solar for all we manufacture cis thin film modules and provide integrated system solutions worldwide.
Solar frontier power module. Our expertise covers the entire solar energy value chain from pioneering next generation cis modules through to independent power production. All solar frontier modules are produced in japan based on a legacy of over 40 years experience in the pv industry. Many model calculations for solar power installations based on conventional module technologies assume optimum conditions with the sun high in the sky no clouds a clear atmosphere no shadows moderate. We are headquartered in tokyo japan and a subsidiary of a robust energy company.

Furthermore our parent company showa shell sekiyu k k has over 100 years of history in the energy business which gives our customers peace of mind. Solar frontier s cis technology is also more efficient than other thin film modules such as tandem amorphous or microamorphous modules. Building on a legacy of work in solar energy since the 1970s solar frontier today develops and manufactures cis denoting copper indium selenium thin film solar modules for.
In technology our cis modules excel. Besides the high module efficiency the high quality and easy installation of framed modules were crucial decision factors. Solar frontier k k a 100 subsidiary of showa shell sekiyu k k. Tyo 5002 solar frontier has a mission to create the most economical ecological solar energy solutions on earth.
If these have been poorly processed so called hot spots can occur which can lead to power losses. Solar frontier cis modules are based on fully coated thin pv layers and therefore have no soldering points. Conventional crystalline pv modules possess hundreds of soldering points between the individual cells. Solar frontier is a leading cis thin film solar energy company by production sales and technology.
Solar frontier is now approaching four gigawatts of cis modules and system shipments. Bonnhof germany cis thin film modules from solar frontier were our first choice for this three megawatt solar power plant.
