About SunDensity
SunDensity is a materials company that has developed a proprietary photonic smart coating (PSC) technology to enhance the efficiency of solar panels. The company's core business revolves around the production and application of these coatings, which can increase the power output of solar panels by up to 20%. This is achieved by converting photons from the sun that are normally unusable by solar cells into photons that can be readily converted into electricity.
The company's primary market is the utility-scale solar power industry, where even small increases in efficiency can lead to significant financial gains. SunDensity also sees a market for its coatings in the architectural glass industry, where they can be used to improve the energy efficiency of buildings. The business model is B2B, with SunDensity selling its coatings to solar panel manufacturers and glass producers.
SunDensity has also expanded its capabilities through the acquisition of QD Solar, a company specializing in quantum dot-based photovoltaic cells. This acquisition strengthens SunDensity's position in the advanced materials for solar energy space.
