Solar Manufacturing News

Hangzhou First Applied Materials' board has approved strategies to increase its production ability for PV films and backsheets.

Polysilicon maker Daqo New Energy has submitted new papers relating to a prospective initial public offering (IPO) to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, detailing exactly how profits will certainly be invested in new centers.

A global research study team has actually found that the presence of a few lattice flaws in a kesterite PV cell product can really improve efficiency, instead of lowering it. The group believes that kesterite PV cells can see mass production within the following years.

PV tools vendor RENA innovations has secured its largest ever before single order from a significant PV supplier in Asia as part of the customer's brand-new 15GW PERC cell capability growth strategies.

The system will use an ingenious solar film established by Power Roll that can be manufactured for just $0.03/ Watt and also released on a large range of non-load bearing structures, including agricultural as well as storehouse roofing systems.

The U.S. utility-scale PV leader is going small. After years of avoiding distributed generation, it is currently providing its Series 6 modules for "projects as well as customers of all shapes and sizes."

Significant merchant solar cell producer Aiko Solar might have increased initially half year revenue 30% compared to the prior year duration, but COVID-19 and solar cell typical cost declines, caused by weak demand, sent out internet profits falling by 68% year-on-year.

KilowattSol CEO Xavier Daval has actually criticized the absence of references to solar in the French government's post-Covid recuperation strategy, which has designated EUR30 billion to the power shift. The head of the PV technical advisory states solar must become a lot more main to France's critical choices as well as China must not be enabled to preserve its near-monopoly on PV panel manufacturing.

Coming out of stealth-mode, US-based integrated PV panel production startup, Violet Power intends to interfere with the PV industry with internal manufacturing of high-efficiency IBC (Interdigitated Back Contact) solar cells. The company will certainly use cell-to-module 'flex circuit' as well as thermal plastic encapsulant innovation in a glass/glass setup that will have a solar panel guarantee of 50 years, greater than three times the standard in the market, today.

Polysilicon producer GCL-Poly has started construction on the first phase of a brand-new 54,000 MT polysilicon manufacturing center.

Researchers in Germany are scaling up initiatives to bring perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell innovation into commercial scale manufacturing. The scientists state production cells of that kind is feasible on widely-available six-inch silicon wafers as well as modular systems are being created to do so at scale.

ReneSola as well as Zhongnan Industry have chosen to enter into a JV to set up a Solar PV manufacturing center with an annual production ability of 3 GW in China.

PV inverter supplier Ginlong Solis has set new quarterly as well as half-year earnings figures as the firm remains to broaden its worldwide footprint and also string inverter item profile.

Inverter producer GoodWe has actually detailed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange, with the business backing its IPO to aid it go after a new growth method.

Chinese researchers have discovered a brand-new hydrothermal method for the straight deposition of antimony sulfide-selenide films. They utilized ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid to regulate the response system, giving the film a flat, portable surface morphology. It has a performance of 10.5%, an open-circuit voltage of 664 mV, a short-circuit current of 23.8 mA centimeters − 2, and a fill element of 66.3%.
