According to Greendix, the new patented technology allows the manufacturing of custom shaped crystalline silicon solar panels. This leaf-shaped solar panel is the first of many products showcasing this new technology.

Greendix solar panels are also available in a variety of colors, so designers are no longer restricted by the usual rectangular shapes and dark colors, the company said.

Greendix said that its solar tree concept not only provides aesthetic advantages, but also serves as a viable alternative to traditional solar panels in the generation of electricity from the sun.

The company also plans to develop several new custom shaped solar panels in the near feature to showcase the potential of this new market.

Michael Yu, director of technology at Sonelis Technologies, said: “We are excited to have partnered with Greendix to handle their business in the Americas. This new technique will take the solar panel industry to the next level. This technology really opens the door to integrate solar technology seamlessly into our daily life. We feel that the potential of this product is unlimited.”
