Heliatek has won the GreenTec Award in the Production category. The Dresden- and Ulm-based technology company won the award for its innovative, vacuum roll-to-roll production process used to manufacture HeliaFilm, an organic solar film applied mainly on building façades.
 
The award was received by Dr. Ralph Wichtendahl, VP operations of Heliatek, during the Hannover
 
The prize recognizes the technological success of Heliatek as a leader in vacuum roll-to-roll organic semiconductor production.
 
“We are delighted to receive this GreenTec Award. It supports our vision for an environmentally friendly production process. It also recognizes our HeliaFilm technology as a clean and green source of electricity, which plays a key role in distributed energy generation,” said Thibaud Le Séguillon, CEO of Heliatek GmbH.
 
Heliatek is currently undergoing market entry using a small industrial manufacturing line with the aim to mass produce and sell flexible solar film, using the same type of process on a larger scale.
 
The GreenTec Awards’ jury recognized Heliatek’s process, which offers high throughput, high yield and low costs. For example, only one gram of organic material is necessary for one square meter of active HeliaFilm.
