What we do

High performance solar PV technology

Utility scale solar power plants

Cost of PV electricity

Cost of silicon panel technology 1

Cost of silicon panel technology 2

Performance of today’s solar technologies

How to increase performance? 1

How to increase performance? 2

Concentrating the Sun’s energy

Low cost mirror field developed for CSP

Up to 1000 times concentration

Dual axis tracking

Computer controlled

Capturing the Sun’s energy

Dense array of 40% efficient triple junction cells

Fixed on a water-cooled cold plate

Capture heat energy as water at 90C +

Available for:

Air conditioning

Industrial processes

Desalination

How we achieve the lowest cost / Watt?

Use the most efficient cells

Choose location with high solar intensity

Concentrate Sun’s energy

Capture the energy now lost as heat

Benefits of Sunfish technology Lowest installed cost

Easily upgradeable as new cell technology becomes available

Scalable – suitable for large power plants and off-grid locations

Captures waste heat

Up to 70% overall efficiency

Will be grid competitive

Sunfish status

UK-based limited company with EIS approval

Funded by team, angel investors and grants

Extensive intellectual property portfolio

Demonstrator in Madrid

Building pilot plant in Portugal

Looking for partners
