The latest addition to the Watts solar farm in Robeson County, North Carolina, comes in the form of a 6.4MW solar farm, which uses JinkoSolar PV modules. Developed by Strata Solar, the solar farm joins the “southern cluster” of solar power farms in the state.

JinkoSolar provided roughly 20,654 240W poly panels, which were installed on the 55-acre Watts solar farm. It is estimated that the panels will provide enough energy to the grid to power 600 homes. "Watts farm is a strong example of how sustainability has transformed into a mainstream, economic force across this state," said Markus Wilhelm, CEO of Strata Solar. "Strata Solar and JinkoSolar will work together to foster environmental responsibility and bring clean energy and employment growth to North Carolina through this new solar farm."

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
