    REC wafers, such as this one, are now eligible for the 10% Italian premium.

REC’s Norwegian made wafers and modules have both been certified as eligible for the 10% premium available as part of the Italian PV incentive scheme for solar systems that have “Made in the EU” components as they were certified by TÜV Rheinland to be made with European content. Under the European Economic Area Agreement, all products produced in Norway are treated as European.

“REC is well positioned due to our production across the solar value chain to provide customers with the quality European content required to access the Italian market,” said John Andersen, Jr., executive vice president and group COO for REC.

  • 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.
