INSOLENSYS | Integrated Solar Energy System

Summary
The INSOLENSYS technology is proposing a game-changing concept for solar energy management.
It introduces, for the first time ever, an integrated approach to the generation and storage within PV cells which compensates the main drawback of current approaches, i.e. the need to manage the intermittency of solar energy through costly and polluting external storage systems.
INSOLENSYS will deliver a flexible solution that can be adapted to all the types of solar cells, be it home system or large-scale industrial installations for the around-the-clock generation of stable energy, fully eliminating the need on external storage.
The here proposed technology is poised to significantly contribute to the goals of the EU in terms of the Green Deal policy not only because it facilitates the widest wide-spread of the renewable energy, but also because it is based on eco-friendly and available raw materials.
The scopes of the present PoC is to: prove the viability of the INSOLENSYS approach on a pre-industrial scale through extensive testing and validation; and explore the commercial potential of the technology while increasing its Technology and Investment Readiness Levels.
The work will be performed by the PI’s team in partnership with the Venture Building company D1 which will take care of the business development and marketing strategy development, including the introduction to VC and CVC companies.
