2009 Deep Research Report on Global and China Solar Cell and Module Industry was published in Dec 2009. It is a deep research report on the global and china solar cell and solar module industry. In this report the following information was included:
Boston College researchers have observed the "hot electron" effect in a solar cell for the first time and successfully harvested the elusive charges using ultra-thin solar cells, opening a potential avenue to improved solar power efficiency, the authors report in the current online edition of Applied Physics Letters.
BTU International (Nasdaq: BTUI), a leading supplier of advanced thermal processing equipment and processes to the alternative energy and electronics manufacturing markets, today announced it received approximately $5.5 million in orders from Asia/Pacific customers for BTU solar processing equipment. The majority of the equipment will be used for contact formation in a new high efficiency process for the manufacture of silicon solar cells. The balance of the ordered equipment consists of current-generation metallization systems. Revenue recognition for these orders is expected during the first half of 2010.
Burnaby School District (no. 41) is outfitting two newly-constructed school buildings with rooftop solar power systems from Victoria-based Carmanah Technologies Corporation in an effort to meet sustainability objectives. The decision to install the photovoltaic array will bring the school district closer to realizing LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification for both buildings. LEED certification is a distinction given to buildings and facilities that meet a set of environmentally sustainable standards in construction for which the installation of alternative energy options and eco-friendly infrastructure is a requirement.
Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii – Sopogy, Inc. inaugurated the world’s first MicroCSP™ Solar Thermal Plant today at the Natural Energy Laboratory of Hawaii
International Rollforms, Inc., a family-owned, manufacturing operation specializing in custom roll forming production, recently announced the installation of a solar energy system at its 65,000 square foot Deptford, New Jersey manufacturing plant. This move to clean manufacturing is part of their effort on increasing efficiency in their business processes while committing to creating a greener environment.
The newly-constructed Loudoun County Homeless Services Center has begun generating a portion of its own electricity with a 9.5 kilowatt array of solar panels installed by Standard Solar. Combined with a variety of passive lighting and energy efficient appliances and air-handling systems, the structure is expected to receive at least a "Silver" certification from the nationally-recognized Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Green Building Rating System.
GWS Technologies, Inc. (OTCBB: GWSC), an alternative energy company developing renewable energy solutions, announced today that it will begin accepting orders for their own proprietary solar panels beginning January 1, 2010.
Constellation Energy (NYSE:CEG) today announced that it has been selected by the state of Maryland to develop an approximately 15.9 megawatt DC (13.5 MW/AC) solar photovoltaic power installation under the state’s Generating Clean Horizons initiative. This installation will represent the bulk of a 17.1 megawatt DC (14.5 MW/AC), approximately $60 million solar facility that will be constructed, owned, operated and maintained by Constellation Energy on land leased from Mount St. Mary’s University in Emmitsburg, Md. The system is expected to be completed by December 2012 and would be the largest solar photovoltaic installation in Maryland. Only two photovoltaic systems currently in operation in the U.S. are larger.
