6 Market Drivers/Opportunities Towards ZERO Carbon Buildings Building regulations Planning controls Future proofing buildings Carbon taxes Energy security/cost Green credentials Investment Returns 85bn Glass Market 100bn Solar Market

7 Photovoltaic Technologies Varied BIPV attributes & constraints Crystalline Silicon Thin Film (a-si, CIGS, CdTe) Organic (Dye, Polymer)

8 Next Generation OPV Windows OPV Technology Unique IP in low cost printed OPV cells and bespoke PV glass systems olvay chemicals and Pilkington glass on n cost materials, non-vacuum wet print Hermetic Glass Weld. ored batch processing BIPV and truly Transparent Anode Transparent Cathode Sealed Vacuum trial production facility turnkey engineering Anti-reflective/ UV barrier coating Aesthetic coatings Sunlight Back Glass Front Glass Electron Accepting Chemical Hole Accepting Chemical Polysolar s worlds largest demonstrator transparent OPV cell with invisible embedded wiring

9 Cell efficency relative to STC% Higher Yield in low Light Thin-film PV glass works down to 10% of sunlight delivering power even in low diffuse and ambient light conditions resulting in significantly higher yields than conventional crystalline silicon over the day and year a-si c-si Light Intensity W/m2

10 Superior Temperature Performance Thin-film PV Glass delivers consistent power at higher temperatures making it suitable for building integrated applications without the need for additional ventilation 110 Module Temp in UK Summer 100 P o w e r a-si c-si W Temperature o C

11 Shade Resistance Non position dependent Thin film module electrical construct reduces impact of partial shading Thin film modules high voltage enables parallel interconnected short strings Lower line losses Minimised impact from shading Negates need for microinverters
