TÜV Rheinland recently certified Calyxo for the Occupational Health and Safety Assessment Series OHSAS 18001 requirement. The certification means that as of July 1, under Conto Energia IV, Calyxo’s CX3 CdTe thin-film solar modules meet all funding requirements for power plants in Italy.

Conto Energia IV outlined new conditions for funding of solar plants, including a fourth amendment that requires module manufacturers to have a product warranty of ten years, a recycling warranty for modules within the framework of the European Consortium, a warranty that 60% of the products are manufactured in the EU and the certification under OHSAS 18001.

  • Photovoltaics International 19th Edition

    For manufacturers who had their heads in the bunker during 2012, fighting falling ASPs and eroding margins, the nineteenth edition brings you details of what lies in store for this coming year. Wright Williams & Kelly return in this issue with their popular analysis of payback on technology buys; crucially they analyze n-type wafers, Al2O3 passivation and copper metallization. SERIS shows us how to achieve 18.7% efficiencies using low-cost etching techniques on diffused wafers. We also have two important technology roundups: CIGS from Helmholtz Berlin, and PV module encapsulation techniques from Fraunhofer ISE.
