TWI's expertise in coating and sealing can help ensure the longevity and sustained performance of PV systems. While plastic substrates would be cheaper and lighter, they are too permeable and too soft.

TWI has a number of innovative approaches such as friction stir welding, low stress low distortion welding techniques and fabrication using adhesives. TWI's coating technologies can be used to ensure the longevity of both internal and external elements of solar panels.
