Creating Possibilities and Bending Trajectories

When Michael Taschuk founded G2V, it was to solve problems for people who are tackling the world’s biggest challenges. A career in academics showed him the possibilities — and the limitations — of current solar simulators. By making something better, by crafting more precise tools, he could support the teams that are creating genuine change.

“There are people interested in outcomes that might be 10, 20, 50 years down the road. We want to bend that trajectory."

The Ultimate Guide to Solar Simulation

This article outlines a concept called ‘solar simulation’ – a technology pioneered by Michael and his team that mimics the sun for use in research labs, industry applications and commercial use.

“There are solutions to be found. Let’s map the terrain.”
