Company patents

Maxeon Solar Pte. Ltd.

MAXEON SOLAR PTE. LTD's patent strategy reveals a strong, albeit volatile, focus on core solar technologies, with 70.2% of its portfolio in Photovoltaic Cells (Legacy CPC), which saw a remarkable 157.6% growth in 2024 before a sharp decline. While the company maintains a significant presence in Photovoltaic / Photoconductive Devices (20.2% of portfolio), the 48.0% decline in patents in this category so far in 2026, coupled with a 100.0% decline in Photovoltaic Cells (Legacy CPC) for the same period, suggests a potential shift or slowdown in patenting activity across its primary energy sectors.
