VISION

Dyesol’s vision is to create a viable low cost source of electricity with the potential to

disrupt the global energy supply chain and energy balance.

Dyesol’s solution uses low cost and readily available materials, proven non-toxic application

methods and is cost-effective to manufacture. It also works in all light conditions including shade,

pollution and cloud. This adds up to one simple proposition – lower cost electricity available at

the point of generation at the lowest possible cost to the customer, for as long as the sun shines.

The game is large and the prize is huge.

It’s about securing our energy future, now, and for generations to come.

EVOLUTION OF TECHNOLOGY

1st Generation – Mono & Poly Crystalline Silicon

2nd Generation - Thin Film Semiconductor e.g. CdTe, CIGS

3rd Generation – Perovskite Solar CellsThird generation PV includes multiple technologies that seek to improve

upon first two generations through a combination of cost reduction,

increased energy efficiency, improved aesthetics, and opportunity for product

integration. Its heritage is in OPV and DSC.

PROVEN PERFORMANCE

Since mid-2012 rapid efficiency improvement with Perovskites

Efficiency improvement remains on a steep trajectory & 1,000+ hours of 1-Sun Light Soaking

stability at strip cell level. Thermal Degradation (85 °C) milestone to follow.

PSC has caught up with, and surpassed liquid/solvent-based systems.

Now comparable with traditional silicon cell efficiencies. 10

MARKET SHARE DRIVERS

Solar competitiveness measured by the ‘Golden

Triangle’ = Cost, Efficiency, Life

Achieving the Golden Triangle is critical to capture of

market share.

High efficiency, low cost and 20 year+ life span will

open up the ‘holy grail’ of solar – BIPV.

“Golden Triangle” = Cost, Efficiency, Life Levelised Cost of Electricity (LCOE)

LCOE catalyst for market share capture.

Calculated by summing all the costs incurred during the

lifetime of the project expressed in dollars per kWh

($/kWh). Currently projected @ < A10c/ kWh.

Allows a comparison between different generating

technologies and unequal lifetimes to be made.

Potential for Alternative Technologies

Global PV demand to exceed 50 GW in 2015.*

The Global Alternative Photovoltaic Solar Cell

Technologies market is estimated at $16.24 billion in

2014 and is expected to reach $38.25 billion by 2022

growing at a CAGR of 11.30% from 2014-2022.**

The European Union has directed by 2020, all

buildings in the EU should include a net zero energy

component.

In the US, all new commercial construction in

California will be zero energy building (ZEB) by 2030.

BIPV potential

PSC is a game-changer – enabling all building

surfaces, in all directions, to be used to generate clean

energy, even in low-light.

Global BIPV market set to grow to more than US $6

billion by 2017 and nearly $ 23 billion by 2021.

Growth in BIPV will be at the expense of conventional

solar panels in the market today.
