Description

Brite Hellas S.A. is a company working to create industry solutions based on nanomaterials.

Prosol is an investment project within the green industry innovation focus area, concerning the setup of a new production line to produce semi-transparent PV panels for greenhouses and other applications (where only part of the glass of a cell is covered with silicon PV cells, therefore permitting light to pass through). This semi-transparent PV panel will allow the crops to grow and photosynthesize while at the same time generating electricity. The energy production will be sufficient to cover the operational energy costs of the greenhouse. This is a continuation of R&D project supported through Business Innovation Greece - 1st Call.

The main objective of the project is to start the production of a new green energy source that will reduce the need for non-sustainable energy.

29 jobs will be created through the project, as well as a new green solution to the market. Through ProSol, Brite Hellas S.A. will increase its revenues and competitiveness.
