Swift Solar
Swift Solar is a San Carlos, California startup building perovskite tandem solar cells that aim to beat silicon on both efficiency and cost. Spun out of Stanford, MIT, Oxford and NREL in 2017, the company is now scaling toward gigawatt manufacturing in the United States after a $27M Series A and the 2026 acquisition of Meyer Burger's HJT manufacturing assets and patents.
