Flexible Cu(In,Ga)(Se,S)2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells (TFSCs) are interesting candidates for future space applications. In order to verify the space applicability, different experimental investigations of flexible CIGS solar cells on titanium (TI) and polyimide (PI) foil substrate were carried out. Details of the fast particle irradiation tests (IP), ultraviolet exposure tests (UE), and evaluations of mechanical properties (MP) are presented in this paper. Experimental procedures are provided and fundamental electrical parameters of these TFSCs are presented. Different characteristics for TFSCs either on PI or TI foil substrates were observed during the investigations.
