Spanish industrial plant developer OHL Industrial and NVT Licenses USA have signed a contract for the development of a 20MW PV plant in Picture Rocks, Tucson in Arizona, US.

OHL Industrial will provide EPC services while NVT Licenses USA will supply crystalline silicon PV modules for the installation. The project will also utilise 16 inverters.

Arizona has become a hot spot for solar activities in the US, especially for large-scale PV projects. One such project is First Solar’s US$1.8 billion Agua Caliente solar project which is said to be the largest operating PV plant in the world. In September the project had 250MW of peak generating capacity connected to the grid.

  • 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.
