The Israeli company SolarOr has created a solar panel based on a honeycomb structure that is able to maximize its ability to harvest energy.
The BeeHive PV is made up of tiny prisms designed to be integrated into building exteriors as energy generating windows. Made of strong acrylic, each cell is able to use its hexagonal shape and double glazed glass to amplify the solar energy two and a half times, producing up to 140 watts of energy per square meter.
The cells are slanted to absorb the maximum amount of sun and are customizable to suit a variety of projects and locations.
