Design, photovoltaic technology and sustainability
Design
Do you need help to give your future product a great design?
For us, design equals product development. We believe that one must know the technology in the product well, to give it a good design. Great design equals great functionality and usability, as well as a beautiful exterior.
Quite simply we can say that Factor 3 designes everything that needs power. From solar handbags that can charge your mobile, to the sustainable street lamp.
Our work is wide ranging. We design both single products with solar cells in collaboration with local manufacturers, and integrates solar cells into larger building modules at the prefab market.

Photovoltaic technology
Do you need help getting your idea in function?
To us, the concept of technology range widely, and in the end it’s all about saving this planet's resources. We possess thorough knowledge of solar technologies which generates electricity from light. Additionally, we develop all the electronics we need in the products we are working with, so that the best interplay between the needs of energy and the available solar energy is achieved.
If you implement solar cells into products, there are many underlying factors to be taken into account:
- Space restrictions on the solar cell?
- Where the product should be used?
- How is the generated electricity going to be used?
- What are the operational requirements?
These are the parameters which need to be mapped to form the basis for the selection of solar cells - and we have great expertise in counseling.
On the whole, we work to get the most out of your product, and that is why we work largely on reducing energy consumption and reduce losses. This is done by looking at your specific product and taking a look at the entire circuit. We develop software for the system, as the intelligent management of the product actually is essential to the product's viability.

Sustainability
Do you need advice regarding sustainability initiatives?
Some of our customers are architect studios or municipalities that want to have solar panels integrated into street furniture, a green area, a new building or an existing building. They have high demands on aesthetics and want solar cells to be visible, so they can show their environmental initiatives and use it as branding.
Such a task is incredibly exciting, because it is necessary to take into account, which solar cell technology is the most appropriate to use in exactly that context it is going to be used for. What about vandalism? What is the electricity going to be used for? How are the transitions in the materials, from solar to product or building? What about the user - how do you tell the story of environmental initiatives to him/her? Should the solar cells function as an ornament or appear more high tech?
Here our skills as designers and engineers, respectively, comes in game, because many things must come together, so both the client, designers and technicians will be happy :-)
