so excited to have Ashlee tell our story
Big solar scoop this morning. @SwiftSolarPV is about to mount the U.S.'s last, best attempt to be a massive player in the solar industry.
It has acquired a bunch of tech assets, IP and key people from Meyer Burger, the onetime Swiss/German solar giant. The old stuff will be paired with Swift's perovskite solar tech in a bid to try and outflank China's solar industry with more efficient, cheaper cells.
We shall see. . . .

Incredibly proud + excited for the @SwiftSolarPV team!
Solar is one of the undeniable exponential technology curves and Swift has massive ambitions.
Love this @ashleevance feature
Shoutout @joeljean9 @LeijtensTomas @GilesEperon @MaxHoerantner @SamStranks
+ motley crew

Startup @SwiftSolarPV banked a $27M Series A financing round to commercialize a new light-absorbing class of crystalline materials known as perovskites, which have the potential to improve upon today’s utterly dominant technology — crystalline silicon bit.ly/3RtfKMr

@SwiftSolarPV is betting perovskite can loosen China's grip on the solar supply:

We're excited to welcome @SwiftSolarPV as our newest member. Swift Solar was recently named one of @TIME's Top GreenTech Companies in America, developing and manufacturing the next generation of high-performance solar panels. Read the full release: semacoalition.org/sema-coali…

Have you ever heard of perovskites?
We hadn’t until discovering @SwiftSolarpv.
The startup is using the naturally occurring crystal structure to engineer more efficient solar cells, helping to combat greenhouse gas emissions and reduce our collective dependence on fossil fuels.
Swift Solar retweeted
With this startup's new solar panel technology, you would need about 60 grams of semiconductor material to power a house.
With traditional silicon solar cells, you would need 300 times that much material.
@SwiftSolarpv is engineering stronger power from the sun.

The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is historic for climate action. It also changes the game for solar energy in the US.
Here’s one way to think about the IRA and how it will affect the US solar industry and new PV tech (like our perovskite technology at @SwiftSolarPV).

NEW! #Cleanenergy businesses urge Senate to pass cost-saving, job-creating #InflationReductionAct now.

@SwiftSolarPV is excited to join this conversation! As climate start-ups, leveraging policy effectively is a team sport 🏀 ☀️
We've entered an age where policy is becoming climate cos' new best friend but it's a wicked landscape to navigate if you're a startup
Join the discussion w @Aehoskins Chief Policy, Sunrun & @carbon_180 on how/ when/ why climate startups can get involved! forms.gle/GvDQMKvjdbj6Z2Ce7

Two days into the job at @SwiftSolarPV and we're fixing a gap in my scientific education: how to make ice cream with liquid nitrogen!
Great way to celebrate this week's birthdays (and new hires 😉)!

Everyone can be a part of the climate innovation movement - and get paid 😀
Here's a cool role for someone w a talent background:
- get to talk to the world's best engineers doing frontier work
- pitch a vision that sells itself (solar cars 😎)
- be a part of a dream team/family
We're looking for awesome people to find more awesome people to help us build the future of solar energy.
Tell your friends to apply for a Talent Lead or Recruiter role at @SwiftSolarPV!

After 17 years working in political/advocacy campaigns, our awesome CoS @patrickmillham switched careers and joined @SwiftSolarPV to work on next-gen solar. Here's his perspective on the transition from campaigns to climate tech!

Excited to see @JariwalaSarthak's latest out. There is room to improve DMA-based #perovskite solar cells. Thanks to @GilesEperon with @SwiftSolarPV, and @rekumar_ and @dpfenning with @NANO_UCSD for the collaborations ...and @ACSEnergyLett team for handling.

☀️ BIG SOLAR POWER NEWS ☀️
The House just passed Sen. @ossoff’s Solar Energy Manufacturing for America Act, which will supercharge domestic solar manufacturing, create good-paying jobs in Georgia and nationwide, and accelerate the transition to clean energy.
