# Audi and Alta Devices have signed an MOU to develop automobiles with integrated high-efficiency solar cells with first joint prototype to be completed by the end of 2017.

As the first step, Audi and Alta Devices will also integrate solar cells into a 
panoramic glass roof. In the future, because Alta’s technology is uniquely flexible.
In addition thin and efficient. I mean almost the entire roof surface is to be covered
with solar cells. The electricity generated from the cells will flow into the car’s
electric system and can supply. That’s for example, the air-conditioning system 
and seat heaters. That’s a gain in efficiency. One that has a direct positive impact
on the range of an Audi electric vehicle.

AnyLight™ power technology extends the energy source of a system. Also and in many
cases, completely cuts the traditional power cord. The solution can be completely
integrated into the final system. Therefore it is ideal for use in unmanned systems.
Also satellites and consumer electronics. Furthermore sensors in automotive and 
remote exploration. Finally or anywhere size, weight, and mobility matter.
