The company
Business Overview Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. (“Ascent” or the "Company") is a solar technology company that manufactures and sells photovoltaic ("PV") solar modules that are flexible, durable, and possess attractive power to weight and power to area performance. Our technology provides renewable power solutions to high-value production and specialty solar markets where traditional rigid solar panels are not suitable, including space power beaming, aerospace, satellites, near earth orbiting vehicles, fixed wing unmanned aerial vehicles (“UAV”), aquatic, terrestrial, and other weight-sensitive markets (including DoD drone and space operations) with transformational high quality, value added product applications. We operate in these target markets because they have highly specialized needs for power generation and offer attractive pricing due to the significant technological requirements. We believe the value proposition of Ascent’s proprietary solar technology not only aligns with the needs of customers in our target markets, but also overcomes many of the obstacle’s other solar technologies face in space, aerospace and other markets. Ascent designs and develops finished products for end users in these areas and collaborates with strategic partners to design and develop integrated solutions for products like satellites, spacecraft, airships and UAV. Ascent sees significant overlap in the needs of end users across some of these markets and believes it can achieve economies of scale in sourcing, development, and production in commercializing products for these customers.
