Oxford Photovoltaics secures £8m funding to develop and commercialise perovskite solar technology
Oxford Photovoltaics, the pioneering UK solar technology company, today announces that it has raised a first-tranche B round of over £8 million from a variety of new and existing investors.
These funds more than double the equity raised by Oxford PV to date and will be used to accelerate development of its world leading technology and extensive IP portfolio, securing the company’s position as the foremost global commercial player in the new, but rapidly growing field of using perovskite solar cells for the generation of clean electricity.
The £8 million announced today will help fund the continued development of Oxford PV’s world-beating technology towards full-scale production and commercial deployment. Reflecting the significant progress made by the company, and its market-leading position, the funds were raised at a substantial increase to the valuation achieved in the previous round.
