Based on a commercial CIGS solar cell, Midsummer engineers, by working with researchers at Prof. Yang Yang’s laboratory of University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA), have demonstrated a four-terminal perovskite-CIGS tandem solar cell reaching 24.9% efficiency.

Midsummer has developed its solar cells by increasing the radius of the rounded cell from 90 to 100mm. This reduces the unused area of the module from eight to just two percent, thus increasing the power (W) by six percent per area without increasing production costs.

Swedish solar energy technology company Midsummer has decided to support a charity school project in the rural Matopos area of southern Zimbabwe. In cooperation with the Paul & Eszter Karaszi Education Foundation, Midsummer will equip a new computer centre and library at the White Water secondary school with an entire off-grid solar energy system.

Swedish solar energy technology provider, Midsummer, has launched a new energy producing metal sheet roof ‘Midsummer solar roofs’. This signals a broader effort to expand from mainly selling production equipment for thin film solar panels into the end market for solar panels for various roofs, facades, and vehicles, through in-house production and via contract manufacturers.

Midsummer, supplier of solar energy solutions, has received an order from US solar panel manufacturer Sunflare worth over $7m for production equipment of thin film solar cells. The production equipment shall be delivered next year to a new factory in China.

A new study commissioned by solar energy technology company, Midsummer, has shown that the company’s proprietary flexible CIGS thin film solar module manufacturing process is more environmentally friendly than other solar module production processes such as silicon modules.

Solar energy technology provider Midsummer, has announced its financial results for the period January to June of 2018. The company has experienced a record high volume of orders received during the first half of the year, about SEK 153m, and good profits.

Solar energy technology provider Midsummer, developer and supplier of advanced solar solutions, has received a repeat order from Asia for production equipment worth about 30 MSEK. A partial payment will be made within 30 days. The production equipment will be delivered to the customer during the first half of 2019.

  Sven Lindström, CEO of solar tech company Midsummer, has said that he finds Tesla’s and SolarCity’s launch of multiple styled solar roof tiles replicating original tile aesthetics very encouraging:

Swedish solar energy expert Midsummer has been selected as supplier of flexible CIGS solar cells to be installed at the Vikingahallen sports arena in Märsta by the Sigtuna Municipality. Fasadglas AB's subsidiary FG Light Energy AB has been picked as the prime contractor and will carry out the installation of the solar cells from Midsummer on the sports arena.
