Canadian Solar becomes member of PV Cycle

Canadian Solar has announced that it has become a member of Brussels-based PV Cycle, an organisation that promotes voluntary take-back and recycling of end-of-life PV modules, including seeking to define collection and recycling targets for the PV industry.

Dr. Shawn Qu, Chairman/CEO of Canadian Solar, remarked, "Our equipment and services deliver solar power at the best possible environmental, economic and social outcomes for our customers. To us PV Cycle is the ideal platform to concurrently develop trendsetting industry standards by working with other like-minded global companies."

    This sixteenth edition of Photovoltaics International marks four years of production of the quarterly journal. As always, our focus is on efficiency and quality improvement and cost reduction in manufacturing. As 2012 rolls along, companies are falling by the wayside due to supply and demand issues, ASP declines and drastic governmental subsidy cuts. A clear picture of 2012 is offered through papers from the likes of TÜV Rheinland, Fraunhofer ISE, SEMI PV Group and EPIA, amongst others.
