Our Vision...
To revolutionize the ability to generate useful energy from the sun. We envision a world where all energy consuming entities are fully or partially able to generate their own energy directly from solar power.
Product Development
Bright New World is creating lightweight thin flexible solar films to enable energy collection
on surfaces not previously available for solar solution. With world leading competence in
optics and nano-technology, the patented BNW solutions are highly efficient, flexible,
lightweight and multi-colored.
Bright New World’s initial product offering includes the following:
Bright Window
Transparent PV solar film with high efficiency and invisible to the human eye. Using patented technology, Bright New World's Bright Window solution reflects light, that is not visible to the human eyes, to the edge of the window while letting visible light pass through the window.
Bright Surface
Thin, flexible and heat reflective PV film targeted for buildings, cars, boats and trains. The patented technology can be manufactured in multiple colors and form factors to meet the need of the targeted structure or vehicle. Bright New World's Bright Surface solution is aimed to enable dressing all surfaces exposed to the sun for the ultimate energy collection.
Our Advantages
Light weight
The Bright New World design is 50-70% lighter than comparable existing solutions allowing for smaller and nimbler supporting structures.
Flexible
The Bright New World solar solutions can be bound on highly flexible film which provides the ability to form the final product on-top or inside base material.
Cost effective
Due to the use of existing base technologies, the overall cost of manufacturing will be much lower than other comparable products. The Bright New World products are designed for roll to roll production limit transportation cost and impact on the environment.
Efficient
The Bright New world products has a significantly higher efficiency than comparable products on the market. This efficiency is achieved by use of the patented layered module design.
Multi-colored
Bright New World solar surface product is the only product able to be manufactured in multiple colors to match colors of the overall structure or vehicle.
Heat reflective
Patented optics solution allow the Bright New World solar products to only allow the most useful solar spectrum to enter the solar product where the non-useful light is reflected which provides a significant lower working temperature for the Bright New World solar products than competitive solutions. Lower working temperatures has a direct correlation to increased module efficiency.
Innovation
Bright New World's technical team is world renowned as leaders in optics and nano-technology. With research facilities in Sweden and the United States, Bright New World is well positioned to bring new and unique products to the market.
The Bright New World technical team has over 130 combined patents and approximately 50 peer reviewed papers. 3 pending U.S. patents protect the unique technologies upon which our initial product offering is based.
A cornerstone of the Bright New World philosopy is to continuously push the limits on what is possible to drive innovation.
