Flexibility Enhances Solar Panels

Gavin Johnstone was walking the aisles at the Vancouver Boat show when he came across an intriguing display. The owner of Ocean Performance, a yacht refit and repair company in Victoria, B.C., stopped in the Open Waters Solar booth to take a closer look at the company’s solar panels.

“We got to chatting and I think I had three projects that we were working on with other solar panel manufacturers,” said Johnson. “The thing that really stood out was that no one else was making composite laminated solar panels.”
