Updates:

• 11/8 - D2 Meeting

• 3/6 - D2 Meeting

• 3/28 - Email to start manufacturing of test modules

Estimated Cost:

• $9,000 for manufacturing

• $1,575 for cells

Vendor for Free/Discounted cells:

• Type of Cell: Maxeon Gen 3 Me3 (Buy SunPower® Maxeon® Cells from the Global Authorized Distributor)

• Number of Cells: about 400

• Purpose: LHR Solar’s Power Generation team is outsourcing the manufacturing of our solar array to D2 Solar and it would be incredibly helpful to have a vendor provide us with discounted/free cells so we can distribute that funding elsewhere.

Questions for Maxeon:

• Do we have info for minimum curvature radius of cells?

• If not, what type of surface texture does it have? (dome, pyramid etc)

  • approx heights of surface texturing

  • thickness of cell

  • distance between texture peaks

  • radius at bottom of peak/angle between peaks>
