Sharp Solar Panel for Mobile Devices Now Available Globally

Thanks to both AU and SoftBank, Sharp introduced a new kind of mobile with an integrated Solar Module to recharge your phone on the go.

And today Sharp announced the global availability of this module, the LR0GC02, meaning that soon you will see other solar phones around the world using the same technology.

Sharp Corporation has developed and will introduce into the global market the new LR0GC02 Solar Module for Mobile Devices that features a thickness of 0.8 mm, the industry’s thinnest level.

Solar (photovoltaic) power generation is drawing attention worldwide as environmentally friendly clean energy, and is expected to see widespread use not only for residential use, but also to power mobile devices.

This newly developed solar module makes effective use of compact semiconductor packaging technology to achieve a thickness of just 0.8 mm, the thinnest level in the industry. The solar cells that make up the module are based on polycrystalline silicon and deliver a maximum power of 300 mW, and as an auxiliary power source for mobile devices, will contribute to saving energy. In addition, the electrode pattern on the cell surface can be formed to meet the requirements of device manufacturers, leading to increased design flexibility for mobile devices.
