Rethinking Solar

High-Efficiency Solar. Built for the Real World.

Monocrystalline solar cells deliver exceptional efficiency, but their fragile construction makes them vulnerable to bending, vibration and impact. Conventional rigid panels protect these cells with heavy glass and frames, while traditional flexible panels can compromise durability.

Open Waters Solar takes a different approach. Our composite encapsulation protects high-efficiency solar cells from mechanical stress while maintaining a thin, lightweight and flexible profile.

Stronger

Engineered to resist impact, flexing, vibration and demanding marine conditions.

Lighter

Approximately 1.3 mm thin, with a lightweight construction for integration onto complex surfaces.

Better

High-efficiency Maxeon NE3 solar cells, integrated bypass diodes and customizable panel layouts.

Who We're Looking to Meet

We're seeking customers, industry partners and collaborators to bring durable, lightweight solar technology to new applications.

OEMs & Shipyards

Integrate high-efficiency, lightweight solar into new builds with custom panel designs tailored to your vessels.

Designers & Naval Architects

Incorporate solar into your designs without compromising aesthetics, weight or valuable deck space.

Retrofit Installers & Distributors
