Irish firm seals deal with Fiat to develop solar panel roofs
It’s hoped the energy generated from the solar panel will be used to power most of the car’s inner electrics and to contribute surplus energy to an electric car’s battery. According to Fiat, these roofs could reduce carbon emissions by up to 15%.
As part of the €3 million deal, Dublin-based SolarPrint will join a consortium working at the Centre Richerche Fiat on the “smart roof”.
