Flexible organic solar cells. 
The Victorian Organic Solar Cell Consortium is a collaboration between academia and industry based in Victoria. The consortium brings together world leaders in complementary fields of synthesis, characterisation and device assembly with industry players who are leaders in solar cell manufacture, lifetime testing, materials, substrates and printing on plastic. The consortium aims to produce prototype organic solar cells printed on plastic within 3 years.
Generous funding of $6million dollars from the Victorian Government via the Energy Technology Innovation Strategy, Department of Primary Industries under the Sustainable Energy Research and Development grants program has allowed these international players based in Victoria to focus their energies on the development of breakthrough technologies in 3rd generation solar cells.
We have moved away from solar cells based on silicon to dye sensitised mesoporous nanocrystalline titania cells or polymer-polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells (see Organic Solar Cells). These novel technologies will enable the generation of low cost flexible solar cells via traditional printing methods.
