OMVS Moves to Capitalize on Solar Development Boom
September 20 2011 - 9:00AM
Business Wire
Falling module prices are causing a boom in solar development,
and On the Move Systems Corp. (OTCQB: OMVS) is working to
accelerate the process.
Decreases in the cost of new solar panels have led to a surge in
commercial-scale solar development throughout the U.S. Market
research firm SolarBuzz reported last week that the nation’s
non-residential solar project pipeline increased from 17,000
megawatts to 24,000 megawatts in just two months, largely due to
solar module price drops over the summer. According to recent
analysis by GTM Research and the Solar Energy Industries of America
(SEIA), the average total installed cost of solar systems in the
U.S. fell 20 percent last year, thanks in large part to reductions
in solar module and hardware costs.
Costs will drop further and the boom will continue onward if
OMVS has its way. Last week, the company announced a new agreement
with Texas Southern University (TSU) to co-develop the
next-generation solar panel using reliable, affordable inkjet
printer technology.
“The impressive reductions in cost associated with solar panels
over the last year are hardly accidental,” said OMVS CEO Patrick
Brown. “New innovations in technological efficiency have played a
major role in making solar power affordable on a commercial scale,
and the market is responding in a big way.
“The best part is, we’ve only just scratched the surface of the
technology’s potential,” he added.
OMVS and TSU are working to develop new, low-cost solar modules
that utilize revolutionary “inks” containing conductive elements
that can be sprayed or printed on to a variety of surfaces to
create solar cells. These paper-thin modules could potentially be
scaled to fit any project, from rooftops to billboards to
clothing.
“Rapidly increasing demand for practical, affordable solar power
solutions has helped make the solar industry one of the
fastest-growing in America despite the trying economic times,”
Brown said. “We believe we’re on the verge of a new breakthrough
technology that will push solar past the tipping point into the
mainstream of the energy sector. Big, bulky and expensive silicon
solar panels will soon be a relic of the past, and the market is
already primed and ready.”
