Our Powerfoyle solar cell is uniquely designed to be flexible and durable – perfect for products like solar-powered remote controls – for a smart and sustainable future.
At Exeger, we create and produce solar cells that enhance products such as solar-powered remote controls. Our solar cells enable eternal battery life, with no compromise on design or change in user behavior. Powerfoyle solar cells use any available light – whether it’s bright sunlight or low, ambient indoor light – to power devices.
With Powerfoyle, we improve products without compromising on design. Thanks to its exceptional qualities, our solar cell is flexible enough to be bent and is durable for everyday long-time use.
When it comes to Powerfoyle’s design, anything is possible. Our solar cell is fully adaptable, and can be produced in any form or texture. These design capabilities allow Powerfoyle to be seamlessly integrated into any product. Together with our partners, we are creating new, smart and sustainable solar-powered products.
Our solar cell has the unique capability of generating electricity from any light exposure, from bright sunlight to low indoor light. Thanks to our dye sensitized solar cell type, performance is unaffected by partial shading, and since it’s a single cell, there are no silver lines or area loss.
Powerfoyle is designed for everyday life and has the unique ability to be customized to match the needs of different products. With light optimization, we adapt the solar cell to fit any user needs and behaviors.

Now end consumers can experience virtually endless battery life without any change in their product experience. Eternal battery life will be the reality for people placing the solar-powered remote control in a lit indoor setting and using daily.
Announced in September 2022, Omni Remotes, a global leader in home control solutions, has launched the Model P+ in collaboration with Exeger. Featuring Exeger’s Powerfoyle technology, this perpetual remote combines premium aesthetics with state-of-the-art solar technology and has the potential to significantly reduce the use and disposal of alkaline batteries.
For individuals, this can mean never replacing or recharging the batteries in their remotes. For the pay TV and consumer electronics industries, this would be a vital step towards meeting environmental net-zero targets.
Remote controls are a great place to start in switching to sustainable energy for everyday life. Eliminating the need for battery replacements reduces harmful waste and protects the environment. By integrating Powerfoyle, you can reduce products’ carbon footprint, align with consumer values and create a competitive product offering.
2 billion TV remotes* x twice annual battery replacement = up to 4 billion batteries discarded every year
