Grant Activity:
New Barrier Encapsulation for Flexible Energy Storage and PV Devices
Purpose:
Under the Australia India Strategic Research Fund, this grant funding will look at coupling flexible batteries with flexible solar cells offers exciting new opportunities to significantly expand uptake of clean energy production and storage. However, ultra-high barrier (UHB) encapsulation is needed to prevent deterioration of these devices on environmental exposure. Due to complex manufacturing processes, UHB materials are now the most expensive component of finished devices, so producing inexpensive, flexible, transparent UHB films is a key challenge for commercialising these two emerging technologies. This project aims to adopt a radically new barrier concept to develop low-cost UHB films and novel encapsulation techniques using roll-to-roll methods, creating a clear pathway from prototype to large-scale manufacturing.
