What makes Merlin solar panels unique?

The grid’s unique design enables Merlin to eliminate thermomechanical stresses that are endemic to crystalline solar technology — allowing for flexible panels when encased in polymers and lightweight, frameless panels when using thin glass.

Who is Merlin solar technologies?

“To boldly go where no solar panel has gone before.” Merlin Solar Technologies, like many of its Silicon Valley compatriots, was founded in a garage. The founders set out to fundamentally rethink the way solar panels were engineered with the goal of ubiquitous deployment.

Why should you choose Merlin solar?

At Merlin Solar, we are pushing the boundaries of solar panel form and function for deployments at the grid edge and beyond. Where traditional solar panels fall short, Merlin provides the power you need. Merlin™ panels are engineered with great precision, ensuring exceptional durability and long-lasting performance.

Where are Merlin solar panels made?

The company has panel manufacturing factories in California and the Philippines. The company also has a contract with manufacturing partner Waaree Energies in India, which has a manufacturing capacity of 1.5 GW a year. Merlin Solar is focusing on the U.S. market but also has a major presence in Southeast Asia and Europe.

Are Merlin solar modules adhesive?

Merlin Solar’s FX line of flexible modules and its GX glass-based modules are adhesive and don’t require a frame or mounting equipment. The company suggests panel adhesion directly to the roof’s underlayment with roofing shingles framing the modules.

How does Merlin solar work?

Merlin Solar’s proprietary grid connection design. Instead of using traditional busbars to make electrical connection points on solar cells, Merlin Solar uses a proprietary grid of interconnects. The grid lends stability to the brittle silicon cells and eliminates failures associated with busbar soldering points.
