Solar manufacturing has moved overseas in the last 15 years. As companies raced to cut costs, production became concentrated—just two companies now produce over 90% of the world's solar wafers, and five companies account for about 80% of solar cells.
"This concentration creates serious bottlenecks and problems for energy security, manufacturing, and customers," says David Berney Needleman, Leap Photovoltaics co-founder.
Leap's solution? A completely new approach to making solar cells that could help U.S. manufacturing compete globally on cost, performance, and sustainability.
Instead of using traditional silicon wafers, which are thick, fragile, and energy-intensive, Leap applies a thin layer of silicon powder through an additive process.
