In this episode of Raw Green, Francesco De Lieto and Emma Mee speak with Neil Spann, CEO of Power Roll,(https://www.powerroll.solar), about the company’s breakthrough in flexible solar technology. Power Roll’s unique micro-groove design enables lightweight, low-cost solar films that generate power from both sides — opening new possibilities for rooftops, facades, and unconventional surfaces worldwide.
Neil shares insights on efficiency, durability, and scaling production through strategic partnerships, along with how this technology cuts carbon, reduces costs, and could redefine the solar industry’s future.
Key takeaways:
• Solar energy remains the fastest and most affordable to deploy.
• Power Roll’s flexible films use patented micro-groove technology.
• Large number of applications, where conventional solar cannot go.
• Dual-sided generation and roll-to-roll manufacturing improve yield and cost.
• Lower O&M and embodied carbon than traditional panels.
• Strategic collaborations are central to scaling global deployment.
