Photovoltaics International Lite, Volume 03 - 2009

Published in September 2009 for distribution at the 24th EU PVSEC show in Hamburg, Germany, our third edition of the Lite in 2009 came in at 44 pages. It features a paper from BP Solar on new encapsulation methods; Location Profiles; Titan Tracker’s in-depth look at wind and stow positions in solar trackers. The PV-Tech Blog by Tom Cheyney takes a look at the first OPV test modules to be tested by NREL, while the News and Products sections keep our readers up to date with the industry’s developments and new product releases.

Full disclosure, my step dad was a memebr of the country club, in fact president and club champion a few times, but he was also a liberal and gave a lot of money to democrats, the local rescue mission, United Way and lots of other charities. Same with my mom. But clearly they didn't have very many black club memebrs. But of course we are in the north too, I can just imagine what Kentucky is like, yeee haaaaaah!

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.
