Power Plastic® Applications

Konarka does not currently create consumer applications; rather we make a light-sensitive material (Power Plastic) that other manufacturers can integrate into their products to turn them into energy-capturing devices.

Some of the applications currently under development by our manufacturing partners include:

Portable battery chargers – for charging laptops, cell phones and lanterns
Outdoor gear such as tents and backpacks – which can power portable electronics and lighting
Emergency power generators – which will enable police, military and emergency personnel to maintain vital communications
Shade structures– which will power personal electronic devices anywhere the sun is shining
Carport – which will trickle charge an electric car
Window shades and integrated window panels – which will capture and convert solar energy for both office and residential use
