The PV industry is well established with prices of energy generation now lower than traditional technologies. As one of the world’s leading glass manufacturers, NSG plays a key role in the supply chain, as a manufacturer of enhanced cover glass using its proprietary coating technologies. This presentation will discuss innovations and initiatives needed for the next generation of PV devices; from new thin film concepts to building integrated photovoltaics and the internet of things. Some new developments in coated glass technologies for the built environment will also be discussed, as minimising energy use and improving health is another important part of NSG’s sustainability strategy.
