G24 Innovations designs and manufactures thin-film photovoltaic modules using a proprietary dye-sensitized solar cell technology. The technology allows for flexible, lightweight, and aesthetically pleasing solar panels. G24 has production facilities in Wales and sales/marketing offices in London and Silicon Valley. It aims to expand production capacity to 200 MW by leveraging research partnerships and private funding. Key target markets include consumer electronics, portable power sources, and building-integrated solar products, which were valued at over $50 billion, $200 billion, and $29 billion respectively in 2008. G24's dye-sensitized solar cell technology offers advantages over competitors in performance under low-light conditions and potential for further cost reductions

3. Introduction G24i designs and manufactures photovoltaic modules and high-value products using a proprietary dye-sensitized solar (DSSC) thin film technology Extremely robust, flexible and versatile; well suited to a range of consumer and commercial products Scalable, roll-to-roll, high volume manufacturing process Production located in Cardiff, Wales; Sales and Marketing located in London and Silicon Valley 30 MW nameplate capacity production installed (~4 MW enabled) with space to expand to 200 MW R&D leverage with EcolePolytechniqueFederale Lausanne (EPFL) Switzerland Privately funded through Renewable Capital, 4rae, Morgan Stanley
7. The DSSC Technology Advantage G24i Flexible a-Si Glass (fresh) Flexible OPV DSSC outperforms amorphous silicon (a-Si) and OPV at low illuminance DSSC is in its first generation product; performance improvements and cost reduction are on the horizon Amorphous silicon is a mature technology with little ability to improve performance at low illuminance and low cost; light-induced degradation is inherent *Tri-phosphor fluorescent tube, T=2850 K
