Centrosolar France has supplied 19,000 PV modules to a project in the department of Seine Maritime in Northern France. Housing developer Habitat 76 has installed 3.7MW of PV modules on 190 roofs in collaboration with French electricity company EDF Optimal Solutions.

The first of the systems, located in the town of Darnetal, has already been connected to the grid. 1,975 Centrosolar S-Class modules generate 385kW of energy on a roof area totalling 3,388m². The project is estimated to be completed in June 2013. Centrosolar France is a subsidiary of Centrosolar and France is, next to the US and Italy, the company’s biggest market.

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.
Manufacturing The Solar Future: The 2013 Production Annual

In the ever-changing global solar markets, cost reduction and measures to increase cell efficiencies are the key tools available to PV manufacturers to create new opportunities and drive your business to the next level. Manufacturing the Solar Future 2013 is the third in the Photovoltaics International PV Production Annual series, delivering the next instalment of in-depth technical manufacturing information on PV production processes designed to help you gain the competitive edge.
