$ASTI Ascent Solar the MilPak™ E
The MilPak™ E is a fully integrated mobile power solution that includes a foldable photovoltaic blanket with an attached waterproof battery case that houses a maximum peak power tracker, 86.5 watt hours of power storage with battery management circuitry, a 55 watt 24 volt power circuit, and two high-current USB circuits.
In keeping with the ruggedized requirements, all switchgear, protection circuit, and the 24V and USB connectors are all rated IP-67 or better, and the case is constructed from a military-grade plastic. Most important, the entire unit weighs in at less than 8.5 pounds (3.8 kg) which makes it extremely portable by military or other users.
This product is the first to introduce the MilPak™ platform to the military, first responders, disaster relief workers and other users who want to reduce the number of components they required to take in the field and take advantage of solar power.

— HOW THE TECHNOLOGY WORKS —
Ascent Solar’s WaveSol™ Mobile, flexible, thin-film modules for EIPV are specifically produced for integrating solar power into electronic devices and consumer products. WaveSol™ Light modules are manufactured on ultra-thin plastic substrates, which provide the flexibility necessary for easy integration to all types of materials including fabrics and plastics. Ascent Solar’s CIGS technology offers the greatest power per space compared to other available technologies, making solar-powered consumer products a reality.
Highest energy density available on thin-film PVs
Manufactured on plastic
Requires fewer balance of system components
Lightweight form factor
Flexibility provides the opportunity to solar power a multitude of
consumer products.
A realistic source of clean, renewable energy
The lightweight, yet powerful Ascent Solar WaveSol™ Mobile modules make it easy to directly integrate solar power into a limitless number of consumer products that benefit from portable power, including fabrics and non-flat surfaces. The power density of the thin-film, CIGS technology makes it the preferred solution for meeting the energy needs of solar-powered consumer products such as laptop computers, tents, off-grid LED lighting, blankets and more.
Most Powerful
WaveSol™ Mobile modules offer the greatest power density compared to other available technologies. The power these modules produce can replace heavy, traditional batteries, eliminate the need for extra power boosters and bring the advantage of solar power to new consumer products.
Maximum Portability
WaveSol™ Mobile modules are created on plastic, not glass, which makes them significantly lighter and more durable. The flexibility of the plastic substrate allows for solar panels to be sewn into fabric or placed in areas previously unavailable for solar energy production.
Clean, Alternative Energy Source
WaveSol™ Mobile modules harness the power of the sun to provide an alternative energy source that reduces the use of chemicals found in traditional batteries.
Lightweight Energy Source
WaveSol™ Mobile high efficiency solar modules, created using thin-film PV technology, are up to 10 times more powerful than a conventional battery. Just one hour of direct sunlight will power 40 minutes of usage.
$ASTI thin-film solar panels
By pioneering a technology that is recognized as the future of the solar industry, Ascent has cemented itself as the leader in the manufacturing of innovative, high performance, flexible thin-film solar panels for both existing and emerging defense, consumer electronic, off-grid, transportation and building applications.
Ascent’s results-oriented team is focused on continued technical innovation while effectively developing current market opportunities and enabling customers to create transformational applications using solar power.
