Solyndra, Inc. today announced a new solar photovoltaic (PV) system for
the commercial rooftop market. Solyndra’s PV system is designed to
generate significantly more solar electricity on an annual basis from
typical low-slope commercial rooftops with lower installation costs
than conventional flat panel PV technologies. Commercial rooftops
represent a vast, underutilized resource and huge opportunity for
generating solar electricity. Since its founding in 2005, Solyndra has
been developing technology and ramping manufacturing capacity to
produce its proprietary CIGS-based thin film PV system. Solyndra is
currently shipping its systems, comprised of panels and mounting
hardware, to fulfill more than $1.2 billion of multi-year contracts
with customers in Europe and the United States.
