Cost vs. Efficiency
Low cost, efficient solar panels are possible.
Our Approach to CPV
LSO optics make the Sun Simba HCPV possible.
Light-guide Solar Optic
Prototype LSO – Thin, Elegant DesignCore of the Sun Simba Design
Sun Simba HCPV Optics
• Current Prototypes
• First panels installed in Oct. 2010 at Morgan Solar offices.
Sun Simba HCPV Simplicity
Sealed Optics clipped to a central heat sink
Sun Simba HCPV
• Low cost• High efficiency
• Thin• Light weight• Low wind-load• Sealed unit• Simple to build• 3.2 m2 panels
Advantage – Lower Wind Load
Small vertical spaces reduce wind load without reducing efficiency.
Advantage – Passive Cooling
Small vertical spaces allow convection to passively cool the modules.

• Small quantities only in 2010 – Spec sheets and price provided as soon as available.
• 2009 to early 2010 will be primarily focused on testing and demonstration systems.
Morgan Solar in Chile
• 2010: Small scale system installation- 5 to 25 kW in SING region
• 2011-2012: Market entrance in Chile
• Depending on market demand, possible establishment of assembly facility in Chile
