Solar energy,
a common technology but…

Until now it was not flexible, rollable, impact resistant, processable & very heavy.

This has now changed with Enfoil’s energy enabling foil!

EnFoil is a start-up company, based on the flexible PV interconnection technology of Imec, TNO and Hasselt University (Solliance). The goal of EnFoil is to enable material and product manufacturers to activate their surfaces with integrated PV to produce green energy at a competitive cost.
