About

GraphEnergyTech develops ultra-conductive, cost-effective, and sustainable carbon-based inks used to print electrodes in energy devices. Our proprietary technology replaces expensive and resource-intensive metals like silver, copper and gold, offering a greener and more scalable alternative. With over 10x the conductivity of standard carbon materials, our inks are compatible with industrial printing techniques and deliver the electrical performance needed for next-generation solar cells, batteries, and printed electronics. Currently being integrated into perovskite photovoltaics, our solutions are also under development for silicon solar cells (HJT, TOPCon) and other energy applications. Compared to silver, our inks are up to 87% cheaper and 97% more sustainable, helping manufacturers reduce costs, improve supply chain resilience, and lower environmental impact. GraphEnergyTech is enabling the transition to clean energy through metal-free, printable electrode technology.
