Global Solar Energy to Present Innovative, Flexible Thin-Film Technology at Intersolar North America
--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Global Solar Energy:
|
WHAT: |
Dr. Jeff Britt, chief technology officer at Global Solar Energy, is presenting the innovative applications of Copper Indium Gallium diSelenide (CIGS) thin-film technology on flexible substrates at Intersolar North America (Booth 9105). Dr. Britt will present as part of the Photovoltaic portion of the conference: Innovative Concepts for Cells & Modules (Thin-Film), and join a follow-up panel with other thin-film solar leaders for an industry discussion. | |
|
Global Solar has developed a proprietary process for manufacturing thin-film CIGS photovoltaic cells and modules, and is the only company reliably producing CIGS that can be encapsulated in traditional glass modules or in a flexible substrate. Dr. Britt will discuss Global Solar's unique production processes at its new Tucson, Ariz., manufacturing plant - the largest of its kind in the world with its phase-one annual production of 40 MW - as well as for a second plant in Berlin, Germany, with planned production capacity of 35 MW. |
