Hong Kong-based Hanergy Thin Film Power Group, the world’s biggest thin-film power solution firm, signed a deal with Australia’s Environmental Technology Solutions (ETS) on 6 December to bring HanWall to the Australian market
HanWall is set to draw the new benchmark for building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) in the ecological construction market, debuting as the world’s first integrated solar powered wall solution.
