Ascent Solar Exceeds 10% Module Efficiency Milestone
THORNTON, Colo. - July 8, 2009 - Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc.

The U.S. Department of Energy's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has independently verified that the modules measured as high as 10.4% in conversion efficiency. The modules tested at NREL were standard 429 cm2 modules produced by the company's 1.5MW production line that was put into commercial production in the first quarter of 2009.
Dr. Prem Nath, Sr. Vice President of Production Operations for Ascent Solar, stated, "This is a significant breakthrough in demonstrating our ability to manufacture monolithically integrated flexible CIGS modules with greater than 10% module efficiency in commercial production. Ascent’s high-volume 30MW commercial plant is scheduled to commence initial production at the beginning of 2010. Module efficiency of 10.0% is a vital element for our low-cost-per-watt manufacturing goal in high volume and will establish Ascent Solar as a leader in the production of lightweight flexible photovoltaics used for portable power and building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) products."
