G24i Dye Sensitized Solar Module for Indoor Applications


Powered by G24i – Indoors

G24i’s patented dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC) technology offers a lightweight, robust energy solution under a wide range of lighting conditions. Each module is constructed in such a way as to maximize the available ambient light, converting it to useful electricity which is then made available for such things as charging batteries.

The underlying process for this technology, whereby DSSC can produce electricity, relies upon a sensitizing dye, much like colored food dyes, adsorbed onto the surface of a very thin porous, ceramic-like sponge made of titanium dioxide (TiO2), a commonly available material. The dye traps light, which is just another form of energy, and then uses this energy to inject an electron into the TiO2. These electrons become available for producing useful electricity when the TiO2 is connected through an external load—such as a battery, light or other electrical device—and then closing the circuit so that the electrons are returned back to the dye.

BENEFITS
Low Light Level Functionality

G24i Indoor modules work in a wide range of lighting conditions, from low-light situations to well-lit office environments. This makes them ideal for incorporating into a wide variety of products as sun and fluorescent light is constantly being converted into energy.

Product Integration Versatility

The G24i indoor modules are highly flexible, durable and lightweight. As a result they are very versatile and can be incorporated into a wide variety of products.

Green Alternative

G24i powered products reduce or eliminate the need to use disposable batteries. Products that incorporate a G24i module can produce and use their own renewable energy, providing a maintenance free product that reduces landfill waste and the carbon footprint.
