Not your average eBay item up for grabs, rather a
piece of photovoltaic technology history. Nanosolar, roll-to-roll
Copper Indium Gallium Diselenide (CIGS) PV solar start-up, has put one
of its first three production line commercially-produced PV modules
(Panel #2) up for sale on eBay with a $10,300 starting price!
Nanosolar CEO Martin Roscheisen announced the start of volume production via the corporate blog on the Nanosolar website.
Interestingly,
Panel #3 has been donated to the Tech Museum in San Jose while Panel #1
will be on display at Nanosolar’s headquarters in San Jose.
Could be the perfect tech-geek Christmas present!
Here is a link to the Nanosolar
eBay auction.
