Canadian Solar Inc. ("the Company," "Canadian Solar" or "we") (Nasdaq: CSIQ), one of the world's largest solar companies, today announced its Canadian Solar CS6P-M 6" high-efficiency silicon cell modules have been installed and activated in two 119 kW solar electric systems at Aircraft Spruce & Specialty Co. distribution warehouses. Aircraft Spruce is utilizing more than 1,000 of the Canadian Solar high quality photovoltaic (PV) solar modules in Corona, Calif., and Peachtree, Ga. These 230-watt CS6P modules are among the highest rated by PV USA (PTC) rankings, an indicator of the quality and performance for which Canadian Solar modules are known. Together, the two solar electric systems are harvesting approximately 332,264 kilowatt-hour (kW/h) per year at peak capacity, offsetting the Aircraft Spruce's annual electric costs by more than 65 percent. The systems are also curtailing the release of more than 5,634 tons of carbon dioxide a year.
AccuStrata Inc., a company in the Maryland Technology Enterprise Institute's Technology Advancement Program incubator developing intelligent, real-time optical control systems that improve the manufacturing yield and efficiency of thin-film solar panels, has been awarded a $70,000, phase-one Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant from the Environmental Protection Agency, university officials announce today.
EnBW Energie Baden-Wurttemberg AG ("EnBW"), the third largest energy company in Germany, announced that it plans to build a solar park in Baden-Wuerttemberg using 5.5 MW of photovoltaic ("PV") modules produced by Solarfun Power Holdings Co., Ltd. ("Solarfun") (Nasdaq: SOLF), a vertically integrated manufacturer of silicon ingots, wafers and PV cells and modules in China. The solar park, one of the largest in the region, will be constructed on a former dumpsite and is expected to be connected to the grid in June 2010. The new project is expected to supply electricity to approximately 1,970 households and save approximately 3,990 tons of carbon dioxide per year.
1366 Technologies, a silicon photovoltaics (PV) equipment company, today announced it has partnered with RENA, the PV market leader in wet processing, to incorporate 1366's Self-Aligned Cell technology into a complete cell production process. The new high-efficiency silicon cell process will integrate 1366's proprietary structured patterning technology with RENA's wet processing technology.
MiaSole, a leading manufacturer of Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) thin-film photovoltaic solar panels, today announced the installation of thin-film modules providing 200 kW of power at Project Brightfield, a 740KW solar energy demonstration facility owned by Chevron Corporation at their former refinery site near Bakersfield, California.
Registration opens today for the 35th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference being held at the Hawaii Convention Center on June 20-25, 2010. The early bird registration deadline is May 15, 2010.
Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc., a developer of flexible thin-film solar modules, announced today that it has signed a Strategic Alliance Agreement with Kirloskar Integrated Technologies Limited, India (Kirloskar).
A recent advance by Arizona State University researchers in developing nanowires could lead to more efficient photovoltaic cells for generating energy from sunlight, and to better light-emitting diodes (LEDs) that could replace less energy-efficient incandescent light bulbs.
