Abengoa has announced a collaboration with Capital Riesgo Global to develop the largest CSP plant to date. Abengoa is currently constructing the Arizona-based Solana project, which is expected to commence commercial production by summer 2013. Once completed, it will have a capacity of 280MW.

Capital Riesgo Global invested US$125 million in the project and will, in exchange, receive an equity stake in the project. The US Department of Energy (DOE) granted Abengoa a federal loan of US$1.45 billion in 2010 and the overall investment in the project is US$2,000 million.
Abengoa is currently constructing more than 1GW of PV plants worldwide.

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.
